Catholic Social Teaching, Democracy, and the Trump Era: Cathleen Kaveny on Human Dignity and the Common Good
On this episode of the Jim Wallis Podcast, Cathleen Kaveny joins Jim Wallis to explore how Catholic Social Teaching speaks to democracy under pressure. They discuss
the Trump administration’s treatment of immigrants;
the rule of law, voting rights, institutional trust; and
why the Church must resist cruelty, manipulation, and political tribalism.
Kaveny argues that democracy depends on treating people as “co-rulers and co-subjects,” and that Catholics must hold together human dignity, solidarity, subsidiarity, and the common good in both public policy and church witness.
