An audio presentation of the First Chapter of Pope St. John-Paul II 1981 Encyclical Laborem Exercens: On Human Work commemorating the 90th anniversary of Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum.
Chapter I lays out St. John-Paul II plan for the letter. He touches briefly on thi history of Church thought on the subject of work since 1891's Rerum Novarum (The New Things), and identifies work as the critical social issue of the 20th Century. It has been how we understand work, its metaphyics and its purpose, and its impact on our human self-understanding, that drives how capitalism and socialism have formed themselves into economic and ethical systems of behavior.
We are at another critical juncture in the 21st Century. Automation and Artificial Intelligence are replacing human beings and changing what humans do for work. This changes our self-understanding as a species as well as changes the mechanisms for how we grow and relate with each other as a human family.
Returning to John-Paul II "philosophy of work" helps provide a roadmap of what we should ponder as we enter a new world where work is increasingly not done by human beings.
