Sed Contra: A Podcast of Catholic Theology

Divided America and the Common Good

Episode Summary

Fr. Ambrose Dobrozsi, Dr. John Macias, and Dr. Andrew Beauchamp talk about political division in the United States and the concept of the common good. Is a lack of a common account of the good at the root of our political divisiveness?

Episode Notes

Why do we have so much political division in U.S. politics? Shouldn't we be able to have common-sense conversations about political issues that can lead toward a common understanding and practical agreement? Fr. Ambrose Dobrozsi and Dr. John Macias from the Sacra Doctrina Project welcome guest economist Dr. Andrew Beauchamp to talk about all these questions.
