The purpose of this book is twofold: first, to examine whether and to what extent three representative catechisms, widely used in Latin America, have incorporated official Catholic social teaching; and second, to suggest ways in which Catholic social teaching can be further integrated into catechetical approaches. In the same way, this approach tries to grasp and give some contributions to the call of Pope John Paul II to the Church in the American continents, Ecclesia in America, for developing a catechesis for social justice and peace. Thus, this book addresses and proposes some lines of development to integrate social ethics into moral catechesis.
