Abstract

Throughout her history, the Church has been subjected to unwarranted criticisms that have obeyed, in not a few cases, the disrecognise of her own nature, which has also led to distorting the specific contribution of the Church's Social Doctrine to society.
This article, on the "Theological Statute of the Social Doctrine of the Church", aims to expose the justification and identity of the Church's teaching in the social field, in order to provide an adequate understanding of it, which allows its correct application and a fruitful service for the whole of society.
This identity presupposes that the doctrine mentioned is an essential part of the Church's evangelizing mission. From this perspective we will analyze its nature and competence.
The first theme of this publication concerns the Church's Evangelizing Mission and is intended to describe what this evangelization consists of and its specific contribution to modern society.
