Friends,
You may recall that Pope Francis’ World Day of Peace message for January 1, 2019 was: “Good politics is at the service of peace.”
Let us start a conversation about how we can achieve ‘good politics’; how we can promote effective and efficient structures at all levels of governance to promote human dignity, human rights, and to build the common good.
And what about the principle of subsidiarity? Good governance involves putting structures in place to promote participatory governance. If good politics is to be at the service of peace, then people in local communities must have opportunities for self-determination and empowerment.
To achieve the common good, we must all work to create conditions in which each person can achieve his/her potential.

The proper reconciling of the particular goods of groups and those of individuals is, in fact, one of the most delicate tasks of public authority.”
In our diverse society, this is one of the most challenging tasks for politicians. Good politics requires our politicians to DO justice, including distributive justice, as there can be no peace without justice (Blessed Pope Paul VI).
