Forcing the Free to Be Correctly Free
Liberalism can be understood in considerable part as a reaction against the religious wars of Europe from the end of the Middle Ages through the early modern period. Unfortunately, liberalism itself was so profoundly shaped by the conditions of its birth that it became a perpetuator of the same narrow fanaticism that fueled the fires of the Spanish Inquisition and burned Servetus in Calvin's Geneva. Eamonn Callan's article, “Political Liberalism …
Politics and Coercion
Etude de la theorie politique de Saint Thomas d'Aquin qui tente de reduire l'abime entre le liberalisme et le communautarisme en ce qui concerne notre experience de la coercition. Evitant le double ecueil de l'individualisme et du determinisme social, l'A. mesure la possibilite d'une politique capable de fonder le lien public sur la liberte individuelle et la liberte collective

Letter and Spirit: The Political Ethics of the Rule of Law Versus: The Political Ethics of the Rule of the Virtuous
In recent years there has been a surprising turn in the discussions by moral philosophers, political theorists, jurisprudents, and economic theorists, or at least those economic theorists concerned with distribution. After years of treating justice as a value and, therefore, not an object for scientific investigation, it has become necessary to grapple once again with widely argued and mainstream claims that it is possible to articulate and defen…
On the Naturalness and Lawfulness of the Natural Law: A Few Remarks on Ernest Fortin's Doubts
It has often been noted that opponents of the doctrine of natural law sometimes claim that it is no accident that its principal elaborators and defenders have been Christians who attempt to forge a doctrine that harmonizes reason and revelation, nature and grace. But, the argument goes, natural law theorists achieve that harmony by claiming that reason knows things about nature that wise and reasonable nonbelievers fail to see there. So it is int…
Thomistic Natural Right: The Good Man's View of Thomistic Natural Law
U NTERPRETERS OF St. Thomas Aquinas's moral and political teaching are confronted with a strange difficulty: The celebrated theorist of natural law ethics manages to write the hundreds of pages of the Summa Theologiae that present his interrelated treatments of natural prudence, natural right (jus naturale), and natural justice without reference to natural law (lex naturalis). He is silent about natural law, even though he had already treated it …

On Homistic Natural Law the Bad Man's View of Thomistic Natural Right
HE MOST IMPORTANT THING that can be done for Thomistic studies in ethics and politics is to make clear that neither the notion of law in general nor of natural law in particular is the foundation of his ethical and political teaching. On the contrary, his teaching about virtue is the foundation of his doctrine. Within the teaching about virtue the natural law doctrine plays quite a subordinate role whose character is, furthermore, quite different…
