Abstract

Pope Benedict XVI, in his third encyclical Caritas in Veritate, Charity in Truth, (2009) makes an analysis from the Christian perspective, on the development in a globalized society. Charity in truth in Christianity is the operating principle that attempts to explore in depth the principal guiding criteria for human beings, two of them of maximum impact: justice and the common good. Benedict XVI makes some considerations on human development in the current debate. He mentions some important deviations, well known in the international arena, and then from the perspective of the Christian conscience and its transcendental dimension looks into the human beings, their rights and obligations on human progress and into the global human family, as the center and purpose of the development of peoples.
