Abstract

The social teaching about human dignity, proposed in the Pope Francis‘s encyclical 2020 "All Brothers", is analyzed. The encyclical was found to provide the ideas for common resisting the challenges surrounding the Covid-19 epidemic. It criticizes the specific for the consumerist society transformation of the human, the unification and depersonalization dynamic associated with the global market triumph and the transformation of the person into a subject of sale which can be benefited or not. As the basis for the Christian worldview and universal ethics Pope Francis proposes the resolute adoption of the human dignity ideas as the foundation for social and legal order. Pope Francis creates a new theory of social harmony, taking into account the realities of communicative society. In spite of populism and globalization, Pope Francis defends the public dignity as unique collective performers with their own rights and responsibilities.
