ABSTRACT: Religious organizations and fundraising: a possible combination (indeed necessary) Fund-raising activities represent the principal livelihood and sources of growth and development for non-profit organisations. Fund-raising is, also, an increasingly important part of religious organizations life. Almost each of them engages in some kind of fund-raising activity, with the purpose of generating income to sustain the organization’s programs and activities. The present study analyzes the relationship between religious organizations and fund-raising activities: a correlation that always existed, but now calls for consolidation and improvement in order to allow religious organizations to achieve economic sustainability. Therefore, religious organizations should develop competency and capacity to design and implement fund-raising activities, through appropriate policies, tools and methodologies. In this perspective, the author examines all the facets of fund-raising activities related to the religious organizations sector and, more in general, the possible applications of business administration principles to the management of religious bodies (so-called “church management”).

ABSTRACT: The Encyclical Caritas in veritate, promulgated by Pope Benedict XVI in June 29th, 2009, omits faithfull the term capitalism, also used in the social doctrine of the Church by Pope Leo XIII in Rerum Novarum untill Centesimus Annus of John Paul II. Analysing the Encyclical and because of this omission, in the teaching of Pope Ratzinger may be felt appreciation for the market economy, different from the capitalist economy. This distinction had already made and proposed in the last century by Luigi Sturzo, sociologist and Catholic thinker, enlightened and free.

ABSTRACT: This essay examines the more recent judgements of the United Sections of the italian Court of Cassation on Article 11 of the Lateran Treaty, in the context of the vibrant juridical debate on this matter. It highlights how the United Sections of the Court defines this legal guarantee, granted by lateran Treaty to the central entities of the Catholic Church, in terms of “functional or restricted immunity” according to international law, so that - the Court adds - its basic foundation in the Italian constitution lies both in Article 7 (State-Church relations) and in Art. 10, concerning the automatic effect of the general international norms in the Italian system of law. Furthermore, the paper makes some relevant remarks about the main aspects and actual evolution of the doctrine of sovereign “immunity” through some recent judgements of italian law Courts. Then it underlines some emerging differences in its application - through Art. 11, Lat. Treaty - to the central entities of the Catholic Church, deriving from the special recognition of the “sovereignty of the Holy See in international matters” (Art. 2, Lat. Treaty). Finally it makes some concluding remarks about the actual meaning of this legal guarantee, taking the 2009 Monetary Agreement between the European Union and the Vatican City State into consideration too.

SUMMARY: The spirit of the present contribution: “the economics as if the person would count” – 1. Essential notes on the “popular capitalism” in the thought of Luigi Sturzo - 2. The economical liberty and the rules’ liberalism – 3. Synthesis considerations.

ABSTRACT: Without any claim of exhaustiveness, these brief notes seem to give a key of reading to individuate the links between the Sturzian thought and the teaching of the Encyclical Caritas in veritate: maybe between the ecclesiastical law and economics. For a more detailed and complete analysis, it will be necessary that the analyst considers that the Caritas in veritate does not want to be an economics treaty, rather a theological-pastoral document whose argumentations are in the point of conjunction between the social sciences and the Christian anthropology that judges and connects them
