Castel Gandolfo: Congress for the legal profession

Oct 20, 2016

“Together in Dialogue: Demands for rights and the law’s response"

The objective of the convention to be held in the Mariapolis Centre at Castel Gandolfo (Rome), is to review the professions or activities of magistrates, lawyers, chancellors, prison staff and law enforcers, and discover the path to be pursued together to achieve justice, involving all the “actors” of the multifaceted relationships involved. On Saturday afternoon, there will be separate sessions according to professions or work fields, developed to help these pathways:  magistrates coordinated by Dr. Gianni Caso, President Emeritus of the Court of Cassation Section; lawyers coordinated by Atty. Orazio Moscatello of the Court of Bari and Dr. Fiorella Verona of the Court of S. Maria Capua Vetere; court personnel coordinated by Concetta Rubino, Chancellor in the Court of Naples; prison staff coordinated by Dr. Sebastiano Zinna, former director of the UEPE in Rome and Dr. Salvatore Nasca, Director of UEPE in Florence; and law enforcers coordinated by Dr. Pasquale De Rosa, former official of the Ministry of Defence. The convention is undergoing accreditation procedures by the Council of the Lawyers’ Roll of Velletri (Rome) for the recognition as a professional development course. Program Enrolment and bookings open up to 15 November 2016: prenotazioni@comunionediritto.org Enrolment form

What is the point of war?

What is the point of war?

At this time when the world is torn apart by brutal conflicts, we share an excerpt from the famous book written by Igino Giordani in 1953 and republished in 2003: The uselessness of war. “If you want peace, prepare peace”: the political teaching that Giordani offers us in this volume can be summarized in this aphorism. Peace is the result of a plan: a plan of fraternity between peoples, of solidarity with the weakest, of mutual respect. Thus a more just world is built, this is how war is set aside as a barbaric practice belonging to the dark phase of the history of mankind.

Don Foresi: the years of work for the incarnation of the charism

Ten years ago, on 14th June 2015, the theologian Don Pasquale Foresi (1929-2015), whom Chiara Lubich considered a co-founder of the Movement, died. He was the first focolarino priest and the first Co-President of the Focolare. A few months ago, the second volume of Foresi’s biography, written by Michele Zanzucchi, was published. We spoke about it with Prof. Marco Luppi, researcher in Contemporary History at the Sophia University Institute in Loppiano (Italy).
