Produktbeschreibung
Pope Paul VI and His Quest for World Peace is a powerful two-volume work that reintroduces one of the most influential yet underappreciated popes of the 20th century. Leading the Church from 1963 to 1978, Paul VI carried forward the reforms of Vatican II and reshaped the papacy into a global moral voice for peace. Volume 2: If You Want Peace... provides a rich commentary on his annual New Year's Peace Messages, where he called for a new global ethic: not "prepare for war," but "promote human rights" and "work for justice." Written with clarity and insight by Fr. John F. Tuohey, this work is a timely reminder of Paul VI's enduring vision and relevance in today's conflict-ridden world.
