In comparing the works of two major Catholic thinkers, John Courtney Murray (1904-1967) and Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde (1930-2019), one finds an example of the divergences between European-continental Catholic and US Catholic concepts of the state and society.

| Σύνοψη: | In comparing the works of two major Catholic thinkers, John Courtney Murray (1904-1967) and Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde (1930-2019), one finds an example of the divergences between European-continental Catholic and US Catholic concepts of the state and society. This divergence has become more evident in the context of the rise of American Catholics in politics and in the context of the crisis of the post-World War II liberal political order, but they have been at the heart of different Catholic intellectual traditions for quite some time. A comparative analysis of Murray and Böckenförde helps to explain the role of US Catholicism in the crisis of American democracy and the complexity of the reception of Vatican II in political theology in different Catholic Churches around the world. |
