Italian Fundamental Moral Theology after Veritatis splendor: Specific Proposals

This article analyzes specific proposals in Italian theology for the construction of Fundamental Moral after the publication of Veritatis splendor. It considers the contributions of authors who, even without having a global project in mind, have written specific works in this field. The most notable feature is the central pole of conscience as mediator between the Christological foundation of morality on one hand and anthropology on the other. We suggest, as a further line of research for the dialogue with global perspectives in Fundamental Moral Theology, the study of Jesus Christ's moral conscience in his Paschal Mystery.
