While the Dobbs decision was a welcome one for many, it was not so for others, dealing as it does with abortion, one of the most contentious issues of an increasingly-divided America. This article considers the Dobbs decision in the light of other divisive legal decisions in this nation’s history. From a legal perspective, the Dobbs decision has some great benefits: it now forces those who wish to defend or expand abortion in this country to have to do so via the legal process (which will be harder for them to do), and should also strengthen respect for the rule of law and the Constitution in our country overall. All of this is contingent on people choosing to maintain civility while moving forward in a post-Dobbs America, of course, which is by no means guaranteed.

The aim of the paper is to identify the economic component of Pope Benedict XVI’s Africae Munus exhortation of 2011, and then to relate his reflection to selected elements of contemporary economic thought. This will be done through a critical analysis of the text combined with a discussion of its diagnosis of the most important economic challenges for Africa and proposals for action in this field. The Pope, listening to the voice of the Second African Synod of 2009, treats the continent in a subjective manner, focusing on the tasks of the Church and local authorities and communities. In doing so, he appeals to the international community to respect the sovereignty of the continent and its specificity, and to beware of ideological pressures. The economic problems addressed in the document are shown from an integral perspective, having its source in Catholic social teaching.

In this article, SCSS President Stephen M. Krason examines the increasingly authoritarian trend present in American liberalism, particularly with regard to the matter of free speech. Once firm supporters of the ideal, today’s liberals are increasingly against it. The author provides a number of examples of this trend, citing suppression via government overreach and officially-issued mandates, the stifling of alternative news media outlets, and the worrisome pattern of censorship on university campuses across the country. This ongoing program of suppression constitutes a form of tyranny, and makes hypocrites of those engaging in it. There are also signs that there may be a backlash building against this trend, but it will take some effort on the part of the defenders of free speech to make it happen.
在这篇文章中，SCSS主席Stephen M. Krason审视了美国自由主义中日益专制的趋势，特别是在言论自由问题上。曾经是这种理想的坚定支持者，如今的自由主义者越来越反对这种理想。作者列举了许多这种趋势的例子，包括政府越权和官方发布的命令、对另类新闻媒体的压制，以及全国大学校园中令人担忧的审查模式。这种持续的镇压计划构成了一种暴政，并使那些参与其中的人成为伪君子。也有迹象表明，这一趋势可能会遭到强烈反对，但这需要言论自由捍卫者的一些努力才能实现。
