This clip was taken from the Catholic Theology Show's Episode “Understanding Just War Theory in the Catholic Tradition w/Dr. Joseph Capizzi." Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/U-EIuj5pV4I

How does the Catholic tradition address the complex reality of war?

Dr. Michael Dauphinais hosts Dr. Joseph Capizzi, dean and professor of moral theology and ethics at the Catholic University of America, to explore just war theory. They discuss its roots in Roman and Christian thought, particularly through Augustine and Aquinas, and the role of mercy and forgiveness in fostering lasting peace.
