Week 8: The Common Good

This section seeks to raise a greater awareness and understanding of the Church’s deep moral and social doctrine. 

The Common Good
Unique and unrepeatable in his individuality, every person is a being who is open to relationships with others in society. Life together in society, in the network of relationships linking individuals, families and intermediate groups by encounter, communication and exchange, ensures a higher quality of living. The common good that people seek and attain in the formation of social communities is the guarantee of their personal, familial and associative good[75].
