dc.description.abstractThe aim of this Long Essay is to outline the two dominant, and opposed, ideologies of the late nineteenth and twentieth Centuries and to discuss the view of Catholic social teaching towards them. With the collapse of Communism, across Eastern Europe, in 1989, it seemed Capitalism had won the ideological struggle, but in its unchecked form it has been criticised, especially by Pope John Paul II, for its failure to respect human dignity and social justice. In the Western and Central Europe, Governments have spoken of a 'Third Way', where Capitalism can flourish but where also people are protected by the State. The Government should ensure fair wages and the provision of Social Services, should not be totally left to the Markel. I wish to investigate, whether Catholic social teaching has arrived at an agenda, for this 'Third Way'. A number of documents will be discussed, which 1 feel give us a sense of the historical development of social teaching from the Church, and give emphasise to the issues of private property and workers rights, which are central to the ideological debate. On the basis of my research, I wish to come to a conclusion to the question, of whether we have arrived at a 'Third Way' between Communism and Capitalismen_US
