The recent statement by Pope Leo XIV, addressed to the Diplomatic Corps accredited to the Holy See, that \u201cwar is back in fashion and the enthusiasm for war is spreading,\u201d confirms the growing global trend of recent years. In this context, the new publication from HOAC Editions of the Catholic Workers’ Brotherhood (Hermandad Obrera de Acci\u00f3n Cat\u00f3lica) champions peace as the only alternative for building a future of hope for all humanity.<\/p>\n

“This work emerges as an urgent manifesto and an ethical and prophetic compass. It is not only an analysis, but a call to civic action in the face of what its authors perceive as a dangerous global drift toward militarization and the abandonment of humanist foundations…”<\/p>\n
