Description
Summary:One of the expressed purposes of The American Catholic Sociological Society is to present the sociolgical implications of Catholic thought. This aim assumes the existence of a set of sociologically revelant conceptions of an identifiably Catholic derivation. An analysis of social and religious systems indicates that these conceptions are related to a distinctive Catholic definition of the human agent and supply the ultimate premises of values or social goals which a system should strive to achieve. By studying the social means required to implement these goals, sociologists throw considerable light on the social nature of man and on the junctional exigencies of his essential social needs.
