Pope John Paul II's 1191 encyclical, Centesimus Annus commemorates the hundreth anniversary of Pope Leo XⅢ's 1891 encyclical, Rerum Novarum, considered the beginning of modern Catholic social teaching. Centesimus Annus has attracted various attentions from the Catholics and academic worlds together over the world. The purpose of this paper is to discuss about the Catholic thoughts on economy and economics especially with Centesimus Annus. For this encyclical is called one of the profoundest and most comprehensive Catholic social teachings. The inner logic of Centesimus Annus begins with concrete inspection of human being. The main lines of Centesimus Annus are clean and clear : the human as a sinful and righteous, but acting, and creative person. capable of initiative and responsibility, seeking institutions in the three main spheres of life (political, economic, and cultural) worthy of his or her capacities-institutions that do not stifle or distort human liberty. For God Himself made human beings free. There are interesting elements in other parts of the encyclical, but the most striking section is Chapter V, which mostly deals with questions about the economy. It is said that for the first time in the modern history of Catholic social doctrine, there is here an emphatic and elaborated approval of the market economy as the optimal economic arrangement in today's world. Of course, there are already spins on the document suggesting that the Pope is equally critical of socialist and capitalist economies. The many phrases endorsing private property, free markets, even profit will warm the cockles of the classical liberal's heart. The sharp attack on the welfare state and the strong defense of family will appeal to the traditional conservatives. The assertion that "profitability is no the only indicator of a firm's condition" will appeal to the neo-conservatives and other believers in "corporate social responsibility." Nowadays the awareness of the importance of moral capital is growing in the economics. Economy is not self-sufficient. Economy does not provide moral capitals which are vital for the existence of the capital society. With study on Centesimus Annus we can pay attention to important aspects of our life altogether and get the critical conclusion : the only long-lasting foundation for a capital society is a moral, spiritual, and religous one. This conclusion is what we need in this materialistic world today.
