Sažetak

The author analyses the address of Pope John Paul II during the second pastoral visit to Croatia, with a special emphasis on the meetings in Split and Solin, wanting to find a foundation and the invaluable value in a 20-year time gap, for the Church and Croatian society in the turbulent times of today. The truth about man, the Church and society he warns about, is based on the evangelical treasure and historical experience; it has an impassable value and after two decades invites us for a pastoral and social inventory. In the centre of the Pope's attention is man with his identity and mission in the Church and in society. The Pope is rightly presenting himself as the pilgrim of the gospel because for him the gospel represents admiration over man's dignity in the light of the proclamation. Such illuminated identity and the associated witness testimony of man, the Church, and society are directed towards building
a culture of life and preserving the same. Man is the starting, the central and the underlying point of evangelization and democratization processes. The imperative of today is the healing of historical wounds, so that man could, on the brink of the third millennium, remain opposed to the dangers of hedonism and consumerism on a solid foundation of Christian values that contribute to the true democratization of society.
