Abstract

The present work aims to present the reflection developed by Fabrice Hadjadj in his text/conference “Replacing man at the center: an anthropological challenge”, dialoguing with other sources of Catholic theology and the Social Doctrine of the Church regarding the theme of theological anthropology and its contemporary challenges, especially in relation to the economic issue. The research developed is of a bibliographic nature and of a basic/theoretical bias, having as a problem the need to understand the possible overlaps between the reflection made by Hadjadj and the Catholic social teaching. As a result of research, we realized that the convergence between the latent theology present in Hadjadj's text and the clairvoyant theological anthropology expressed in the Church's Social Doctrine, giving us the opportunity to recognize the perennial validity of such doctrinal teaching today for the promotion of authentic human dignity in a society that faces serious socio-economic difficulties and obstacles. Didactically, a thematic subdivision followed the original sections of Hadjadj's text, so that the correspondence with his own reflection becomes more evident throughout the reasoning that we propose here. Finally, sections and reflections were added, but the proposed expansion was made in a way connected with the primary theoretical framework.
