Monastic povertu and bearing witness to it in contemporary ways oj earning and work

Tema ovog rada je svjedočenje redovničkog siromaštva u suvremenom načinu rada i privređivanja. U svrhu postizanja stoje moguće veće jasnoće u tom problemu, autor je rad metodološki podijelio u tri dijela: u prvom dijelu je najprije istaknuo tri bitne teološke oznake redovničkog siromaštva, tj. 1. kristocentrično sebedarje Bogu, 2. proročki znak eshatološkog vremena i 3. askezu, da bi zatim, u drugom dijelu, svoju pozornost usmjerio na društvenu funkciju redovničkog siromaštva. On tu funkciju vidi u: 1. društvenoj kritici postojećeg stanja, 2. solidarnosti s onima koji su ugroženi i 3. karitativnoj ljubavi. Razlikujući potom rad od privređivanja, autor, u trećem dijelu, tako shvaćeno i protumačeno redovničko siromaštvo dovodi u vezu sa suvremenom fenomenologijomprimarnog, sekundarnog i tercijarnog sektora rada, kao i s prihodom od kamate, rente i eventualnih korupcijskih aktivnosti, kao fenomenima suvremenog načina stjecanja prihoda mimo rada, donoseći pritom uvijek i svoju konkretnu prosudbu.The subject of this work is bearing witness to monastic poverty in contemporary ways of earning and work. In order to explain the problem as clear as possible, the author has divided his work into three parts. In the first part he points out three essential theological characteristics of monastic poverty, i. e. 1) Christocentric selfgiving to God, 2. prophetic sign of eshatological time and 3. asceticism. In the second part the author considers the social function of monastic poverty. He notices the social function in: 1. social criticism of current conditions, 2. solidarity with those who are handicapped and 3. caritative love. In the third part, making distinction between work and earning money, and then placing the monastic poverty within such a framework, the author relates it to contemporary phenomenology of primary, secondary and tertiary sector of work, as well as to the earnings from interest rates, annuities and possible corrupt activities, and also to the phenomena of modern ways of getting mony without work. The author always gives his own opinion on particular issues
