The Franciscan University Press' series on Religion and Society includes scholarly monographs and collections, including the reprinting of classic works, that examine the influence of religious consideration on the shaping of the many aspects of society-including marriage and the family, politics, law, economics, as-sociational activity institutional life, and social mores-and also explore the corresponding influence that social forces have on religious attitudes, practices, and institutions. Some works give particular attention to the role and activity of the Catholic Church and Catholics in society, and the way in which her witness and teachings can shape a just society and what Pope St. John Paul II called a "civilization of love." The series includes works from various academic disciplines, especially in the social sciences, and some feature an interdisciplinary approach.
