"L’enciclica Rerum novarum, un punto cardinale nella storia della dottrina sociale della Chiesa cattolica, rimane sempre un prodotto delle priorità e il fermento del suo tempo. Scritta durante un’epoca in cui il socialismo spingeva verso la collettivizzazione della proprietà e dei mezzi produttivi, l’enciclica fissò una forte difesa del diritto di proprietà in quanto diritto naturale e morale e quale condizione necessaria di giustizia; a ..."
