Michael J. Schuck
Michael Schuck’s book,
That They Be One: The Social Teaching of Papal Encyclicals
1740-1989, is a response to John Coleman’s challenge. Schuck
argues that unity is shown through the concept of community,
therein reinforcing Christian personalism and relational
theology in the contemporary debates. His doctorate is from the
University of Chicago, and his special field is Roman Catholic
social thought.
