The Commission of the Bishops’ Conferences of the European Union (COMECE) invites you to the presentation of the book Beginning with the Many. Horizons of Fraternal Thought, to take place on Monday 27 March 2023 in Rome, with the participation of Cardinal Hollerich, Mgr. Paglia, Mgr. Sequeri and economist Prof. Mazzucato.
The book includes theological contributions on some of the most crucial challenges of our era, with a focus on the synodal process, “a space extraneous to any claiming logic: where fraternal custom drives out mistrustful fear and no one takes on the role of exclusive guardian of the common cause”, writes H.E. Mgr. Vincenzo Paglia, President of the Pontifical Academy for Life, in the introduction of the book.

Pierangelo Sequeri, who edited the book, and internationally recognised economist Prof. Mariana Mazzucato.
