Sažetak
The article provides a concise depiction of the Catholic Church social doctrine during the pontifi cate of Pope John Paul II. Continuing the work of his predecessors, Karol Woytila anticipated many problems of the contemporary society. Advocating the principle of solidarity, subsidiarity, the common welfare and participation, as expected emphasizing that the Church should consider the man’s path as its own, John Paul II stated his views on the family, economy, work, ecology, peace and sustainable development particularly accentuating
the unfavorable impact of consumerism and the undiscriminating views of the consumerist society. These issues, including the one on private ownership, fair wages and dignity of the human person, can be found in all his Encyclicals.
Instead of a conclusion we hereby offer several key points from the social doctrine of John Paul II which will certainly have a great impact on the future of the Catholic Church social doctrine in the globalized world.
