Integral Humanism by Jacques Maritain
Temporal and Spiritual Problems of a New Christendom
"Integral Humanism" is a philosophical work that explores the concept of humanism grounded in the spiritual and intellectual traditions of the West, particularly through a Thomistic framework. The book argues for a vision of society that harmonizes the spiritual and temporal needs of individuals, advocating for a civilization where Christian values, personalism, and communal life are integrated. The author critiques both the materialistic tendencies of modernity and the inadequacies of classical liberalism, proposing instead a society that respects human dignity, embraces moral truths, and fosters a genuine sense of community and common good.
