Dr Maria Power speaks to the Associated Press on PM Andy Burnham, Catholic social teaching and public life

Dr Maria Power, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford’s Las Casas Institute for Social Justice, spoke to the Associated Press about Catholic social teaching and the role that Catholic faith and formation can play in shaping approaches to public life.

 

Speaking following Andy Burnham becoming Prime Minister, Dr Power explained the principles and scope of Catholic social teaching and reflected on how a Catholic upbringing can continue to influence a person’s outlook, even when that influence is more unconscious than conscious.
