Sažetak
The author, in the text, interprets social document which
under the title Fur eine Zukunft in Solidaritat und Gerechtigkeit,
1997 year were published by both Catholic and Evangelical
Churches in Germany. Though that Churches have in their mind,
in the first place their justification sphere, however, as for
internationalization of the contemporary market economy so also
for great role which for that does Germany, content of this
document has global importance.
In quest of assumptions of one general consensus about
building of the future society, Churches seek, in the first place,
ethical assumption of a such consensus, that is, such ethical base
which would be, as starting point, acceptable for everybody. That
ethical assumption they find in Biblical commandment about love
for God and neighbour (Mk 12:28,31 parallel), for which they belive
it could be accepted by averyone, since do not represent none of
the exclusive specific quality of Christianity, but expresses general
ethic good. At that then, as ethic starting point, would go also:
preferential option for the poor and handicapts, justice, solidarity,
subsidiary and persistency (103-125).
On the basis of those ethical assumptions, according
persuasion of the Catholic and Evangelical Churches in Germany,
could be possible to achieve consensus about those values which
should characterize the future society, and they are: human rights,
freedom-loving-social democracy, ecological-social market eco-
nomy, human right to work and a new understanding of work,
aspects and forms of solidarity in a new social culture and
international responsibility (126-161).
