On the political theology of the Roman Catholic Church: Jodok Troy (University of Innsbruck), "'Catholic waves' of democratization? Roman Catholicism and its potential for democratization" ("Democratization", 16 [6], December 2009: pp. 1093-114).
Quote: "[T]he Catholic Church ... perceives the social message of the gospels not merely as theory but also as a call to action, ... the result of the church's changing political theology, following the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), which enabled the church's adoption of a pronounced focus on: human rights, religious freedom, democracy, and economic development."
