Sažetak
The author analyses the development of pastoral theology
in the period from the Second Vatican Council till today. First,
he discusses the relationship of the Council and Council documents
to the pastoral care and pastoral theology. Also, he
presents and interprets the attitudes of some major pastoral
theologians about this branch of theology. So far, the state of
pastoral theology in theological circles has neither been sufficiently clear nor has it always been correctly understood. In spite
of that, this scientific branch of theology has been scientifically
developing, and as an interdisciplinary science plays an important
role in church and social circles.
The author uses historical-evaluative method, analyses the
state of pastoral theology in recent theological debates and realises
that pastoral theology has to be clearly defined, using the
epistemic and methodological criteria, not to stray toward pragmatic
and theoretic extremes. Also, faced with a strong traditional
way of pastoral work, one should plead for the necessary
modification of actual pastoral work, since we live in totally new
church and social circumstances.
