the indissoluble relationship between natural and supernatural life
synthesis highest elevation of human dignity

How many times again, even in this magazine, you do not can fully understand the political and administrative Sturzo if it is recalled that he was above all a priest.

Sturzo, said Joseph Palladino (in "The spiritual approach of Don Luigi Sturzo") "considered the political activity secular ... "but did not see it any ... incompatible with his political involvement and his priesthood, but in the transfused it to give it one big vocation."

His whole life was oriented to the fusion of all aspects of human life socio-political and religious, were not separated from each other and together they had a single purpose: the common good, that the supreme good that can be achieved only when the supernatural is inserted into the human process.

The natural society, said Sturzo, is a "... real synthesis with the supernatural ... supernatural life in human society as integrative, synthesizing and transcending the natural life, is taken as a divine initiative and as a man matching the man to the divine. "

"In the concrete experience" in the natural life, the vegetative, intellectual with "... his character in social life, family, professional, political and moral ... there is in us a vegetative or animal life that is autonomous while being distinct from rational life, so there's only one in us that autonomy does not imply any relationship of supernatural life. "

This indissoluble relationship between natural and supernatural life is the highest synthesis of the person human in which "... the particular purpose of each of us can not exist outside the orbit of the goals natural to man, which add up in the search for good ..". (In "real life" in the "Vocation")

man to realize his personality takes on a character who becomes the physiognomy of the soul that does not neglect his natural vocation, "which" as stated Sturzo ... is a call ... which leads us to work and to conquer us and the world around us. Our personality is formed and is characterized by calling (inner voice) that becomes purposes (well to be achieved). It is a prerequisite to the realization of the supernatural life in us that we are high. As the supernatural life is not realized in practice if not in living, so the supernatural vocation in concrete innovation in itself, subject, the natural one. "

There can be no man "... a purely natural life, but a natural life elevated to supernatural so there is a natural vocation to him, which is ordered to a supernatural vocation."

I do not think there are words more effective than those expressed above by the high priest of Caltagirone to fully understand the true life of a man and as the transcendental aspect is essential to maximize the highest levels of human dignity.

On the other hand, the intrinsic appeal of Sturzo the vocation of man to the supernatural and the common good can only flourish if it does not possess the food of human faced by religion in the extended family to a natural society, including states, federations of states and international companies.

This concept of love is the true revolution of Christianity as opposed to selfishness by the sense of our actual lives, when we talk about their observance of the commandments, and we realize how they are the foundation of our life raised to supernatural and I like to revisit Sturzo when he says that the observance of God's commandments is the result of love and how it happens in the human order: "... those who love their parents, children, spouse, girlfriend, friend tries to please his beloved, the second it desires, it prevents the signs, sacrifices himself for it; thus tends to become similar to it, because in him there is a sense of dedication, love each has its own laws and its sacrifices. Entering into a communion of love settles this race of self-giving for others, self-sacrifice for others, as an inseparable link between love and action. "

This unbreakable link between love and action is realized when the man listen to that inner voice that pushes him in his actions to continuously seek the purpose of development, welfare, the fullness of the self and its expansions.

know and love each other to tend to the fullness of their being do nothing, as Sturzo said that responding to that inner voice (call) "that drives him to achieve those ends that are joined by connatural man looking for the common good."

"... the search for the common good is fueled by love, raised to the supernatural natural life as well as the natural vocation for the common good can not being ordered to a supernatural vocation ("True Life").

Man can not neglect this natural vocation that leads us to the purpose for the common good to achieve high supernatural life.

Sturzo as a priest, but as a man, he instilled in others through this natural vocation and its political and social action has tried to give it that indissoluble link between natural and supernatural life as having purpose, the love of others and for the common good, God has led in the human heart so that they will raise to the supernatural and his dignity as a human being.

With love and inner vocation seeking the common good and not for themselves, the policy acquires a higher value, imbued with a nobility that the sense of this love

delineai In 2001, when the contents of the series of conferences on the Social Doctrine of the Church looked for answers on social issue facing the misery and injustice in the world.

struck me then to read some passages of "Populorum Progressio of Paul VI's encyclical on the development of peoples in which he laid emphasis on the development of humanism where people must have a strong evangelical message as a beacon that "... imposing" the encyclical reads "to be of service men and ... convince them of the urgency of action in solidarity. "

Paul VI went on saying how the social encyclicals not "... fail in their duty, their own office, to project on the social issues of their time, the light of the Gospel."

These observations confirmed me the importance of politics, the high, that the service of men for the common good and not for themselves.

A policy that was basically that of Sturzo which was not only a sociologist and a politician but it was mainly, as we argued in the previous rows, a priest and his example and his thought was an authentic witness to Christ.

He was a man of faith, but also action and worried, like other large Catholic, to give dignity to man, founded cooperatives, banks opened and found the system to create job opportunities always keeping in mind that this is essential to satisfy basic needs of every man and his family.

Sturzo But it was not the only one to pursue with determination the Gospel message, and I mind is the creation of numerous rural banks in Germany from an idea in 1849 of Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen, who organized a cooperative agricultural loans trying to leave so the peasants and smallholders from the oppression of usurers. In Italy some

Wollemborg followed Raiffeisen and the same system, with the help of parish priests, in 1892 created 72 rural banks, cooperatives many around them were born Catholic, not only in the Veneto and Lombardy, but pushed on, thanks to Sturzo, also in Sicily.

There are many other examples of saints, priests and lay people who have made a major contribution in the direction of "making human life more human" (Gaudium et Spes by): enough to remember the Saints social Piedmont 800 that bother to feed and unfortunate men trying to survive with speakers, schools, laboratories, small craft businesses and cooperatives to build their future.

We must remember in this regard, figures such as St. John Bosco, Don Cafasso, Don Murialdo, Don Giuseppe Benedetto Cottolengo and others who worked, among uprooted and desperate, in a world that saw growing out the gap between those who had a job and who groped for the day.

do not need to go further except to say that all these men did nothing but fight to spread the seeds of the gospel in the world whose only goal was only the love of others, they were also practical in solving the social question Leo XIII set himself as the first social encyclical, Rerum Novarum.

The cycle of conferences of five evenings that ended December 14, 2001 organized by the International Study Centre Don Luigi Sturzo Asti "The Church's social doctrine in a changing world" has the same thread of the foregoing that there has never been broken: the dignity of man, where man himself was always at the center of all exposures with the attempt to resolve the perennial conflict between the "physical plane of existence and opulence of one of the other" (Centesimus Annus), a conflict that is resolved in the peace which is built on the foundation of justice and love for others.

All contribute, each according to his ability to create national wealth and this should be justly distributed throughout the community, must benefit all "being universal interest"

We thirst for truth "and as Catholics we have forgotten, or perhaps do not know, some important moments of Christian history such as that of the great teaching of the school of canon law which developed their economic research dealing with it as moral theology, in substance they took into account the moral right of justice. Never remember

S. Thomas Aquinas with his important theory of the right price, a price that is seen only in terms of supply and demand of goods in the economy, but also takes account of social relations and ethical criterion.

In reality, political action must be to seek the common good, this can be achieved through love and the Gospel has to be to create a citizen to become better than today, the policy must be "... a form of being elected, without extravagance, contemplative, but without weakness, wealth appears not as an element of ostentation, but as an object of rational use, and we do not feel shameful poverty in itself, but rather, the lack of effort to avoid it, "this is what Pericles said , the greatest politician of Athens, one of the greatest statesmen who ever lived, there is no doubt that these words from today's world would still have much to learn ..

THE BIG BET OF SOCIAL Businnes FOR A WORLD WITHOUT POVERTY '
"The conventional economic theory, to fill the leadership role of 'firm, has come up with that human being to a size that is the entrepreneur. This was isolated from the rest of his life, separating it from the religious sphere from that of emotions, from the political and social, so that he could only deal with one thing, the maximization of profit "(From Yunus in" A world without poverty "by Feltrinelli).

economic theory has created an entire world to a dimension populated solely by those who devote themselves to the game of free market and competition in which profit is the only measure of success. In this context

Yunus introduces a new concept of economy where business comes into play the social situation "in the right ... taking into account the multidimensional nature of human beings" he sees in a social business enterprise in which the ' entrepreneur will not gain exclusive, but very specific social objectives. "

A social aims" ... to produce a positive change in social conditions of people with whom you come into contact ... an undertaking which can also produce a profit, but not gl'investitori that the fund will have no part, except the recovery, in a short period of time, an amount equivalent to the amount originally invested.

In social business enterprises in all respects must "... recover all costs they face pursuing their goals. "

not love then, but only with social objectives in which the company takes advantage of his skills as a factor in changing the world and can affect society.

Yunus rightly points out that today a large number of organizations involved in producing improvements in social conditions, but in most is able to recover all costs incurred.

In fact, the non-profit and non-governmental not placing the objective of cost recovery are often predominantly forced to spend time and energy in raising funds in reliance on donations, grants from foundations or government aid.

Within undertakings with a social purpose "... things are so different, in that, while producing goods or services with the primary objective of achieving a specific social improvement, it is handled with the same criteria used by traditional businesses and thus is able to pursue full cost recovery and, possibly, something more, by sale of its products or services at a reasonable price. "

In this context the company with a social purpose" ... should be designed and conducted as a real company, products, services, customers, markets, costs and revenues, but with the imperative of social advantage rather than the maximization of profits. Instead of trying to accumulate the highest possible level of financial gains only the benefit of investors, the company with social objectives seeks to achieve a social objective. "

As we know with the Yunus microcredit has helped 12 million Bangladeshis (the majority women) to be able to start small businesses and this has had a great social value as well to have created work has led millions of people out of the clutches of poverty, to send their children to school and improve their houses very dilapidated. Responded to the primary needs of a society in disaster expanding their economic base and taking charge of their own destiny. On the other hand

Yunus has gone beyond the concept of micro-enterprises created along the road of new technologies addressing the sources of alternative energy, particularly renewable ones of location: it arose from the realization that "... many villages in Bangladesh, not supplied with electricity ... so we decided to install facilities in those villages for the production of energy solar ... " [1]

This trail was created Grameen Shakti (Grameen Energy)" ... that works to promote the use of renewable energy ... The Grameen Shakti is currently testing the application of photovoltaic panels for use home energy storage, wind turbines, equipment for the production of biogas (from the fermentation of plant mass waste from agriculture is obtained by the gas that can be used to produce energy). "

This becomes extremely necessary to make the best use of information technology; this, Yunus said: "... will in the world drastic changes ... is shaping a world where distance no longer exists, where communication is instantaneous, and this will affect all areas of life .... "and will weigh heavily for the elimination of global poverty by encouraging the poor in their territory (subsidiarity,) leading them to be masters of their destiny, the end is what the new economy is not left at the mercy of market forces to benefit only the richest countries with which it will be enriched further.

globalization in its positive aspects may lead to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom, taking into account the human rights fundamental, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women ...".

Yunus says that the "IT TECHNOLOGY bring drastic changes in the world. ... Is shaping a world where distance no longer exists, where communication is instantaneous, and this will affect all areas of life ....

He proposed in 1999 "... the establishment of an International Centre of information technology for the elimination of global poverty to become a round table of brains and a catalyst in the development of prototypes that operate in all matters relating to construction."

Worldwide, many people are already rich in resources involved in the effort to abolish poverty. and this center will serve not only as a link, but channeling resources and talents to plan activities related to IT in order to assist countries and poor people to participate in the great wave of prosperity. IT can open up the poor - men, women, young people - new forms of participation in the global economy with the actual cost impact and providing for mutual aid.

The Centre could "design tools, market places and environments suitable for the poor, and ensure that the computer terminal to become a friend, a guide, a teacher, a philosopher, a doctor, an expert, that is all that a poor person in need. "(from" Banker to the Poor "Muhammad Yunus).

This is just one example of how you can lift the poor out of misery, but others if they can do as the establishment of the first company with a social purpose, the Geameen Danone, already operational since 2007 with a plant in Bogra, in Bangladesh, which then produced the first jars Shokti Doi, Yogurt with enhanced nutritional elements in children in Bangladesh have a great need, and villages in the "Grameen Ladies," so to speak as they had benefited from the micro-credit, and then with Geameen Danone had the opportunity of new employment opportunities, a strong local sales, Yogurt was made to try to neighbors and friends and sold.

There have been changes, some initial difficulties, a natural beginning of any activity, but the 2010 with a new establishment and rebuilding of a new marketing scheme likely to win new customers through differentiation of the types of production dedicated to different consumer groups. Yunus provides an exciting year for 2010. 2

We talked about the Grameen Danone linked to a multinational, but there are many other examples of social business enterprises that would create smaller and lower cost; think of the great improvement of the environment with positive benefits for both health and the economy: productivity and quality of life in rural areas would significantly improve through the organization of companies with social goals in areas such as reforestation, control waterways, fisheries, ecotourism and sustainable agriculture. Intelligent

activities such innovation may be those in transport and computer technology that can be applied to health, education or housing.

Yunus is a significant example of social business: Dhruv Lakra, Mumbai, India, started in 2008 to test his idea of \u200b\u200ban express mail service using three hundred dollars, he had saved from his scholarship at Oxford University.

With that money has hired two deaf children who were still in school and started sending emails to friends who had been in contact on the internet asking if they needed to send parcels home, perhaps using its new service.

Someone decided to test the efficiency of the mini company Lakra and that was the beginning of an enterprise with a social purpose that gives jobs only to people with disabilities to very poor condition. Today in this business, Mirakle the Couriers, work thirty-five deaf, delivering packages, in silence, but with great efficiency throughout the metropolis.
