Friar Rados\u0142aw is a member of the Province of St. Anthony and Bl. James of Strepar in Poland (Cracow).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>His dissertation was entitled, \u201c<em>Ecological Commitment as a Moral and Social Duty in the Light of Catholic Social Doctrine.\u201d <\/em>Its objective was to present the issue of environmental protection as an ethical and social duty.<br \/>\nThis topic is particularly significant today because the environment is under constant threat. It should be noted that this is a qualitatively interesting and important subject, not only in the field of scientific research, but also in terms of finding possible practical solutions within social life. The topic is innovative because, up to now, there has been no global approach to this problem in the scientific literature from the point of view of Catholic social doctrine. The motivation behind this topic is today\u2019s ecological crisis and the ongoing degradation of the natural world, which give rise to the obligation to take care of endangered ecosystems.<br \/>\nThe 180-page dissertation is based on the latest sources and scientific research. It contains five chapters covering the origins of ecological awareness and commitment; the Church\u2019s social doctrine on ecological issues; the priority of ecology of the spirit in Catholic social doctrine; ecological pastoral ministry, and the cooperation of the Church with various ecological institutions.<br \/>\nThe dissertation provides very scholarly analysis, synthesis and final conclusions. It is an important voice in today\u2019s debate and discussion on the controversial issues surrounding environmental protection. At the same time, it in no way ideologizes the problems presented, which is a fairly common trend today.<br \/>\nOne should note that this voice in the contemporary Church draws upon a deep tradition that stems in particular from the charismatic figure of St. Francis of Assisi and his spiritual followers. The bond Friar Rados\u0142aw shows between Franciscanism and Catholic social doctrine is certainly an added benefit of this work. The supervisor for the dissertation was Father Tadeusz BORUTKA from the Pontifical John Paul II University in Cracow. The secondary supervisors were Father Pawe\u0142 BORTKIEWICZ from the Theological Faculty of the Adam MICKIEWICZ University in Pozna\u0144, Poland, and Father Henryk SKOROWSKI from the Stefan Cardinal WYSZY\u0143SKI University in Warsaw. The examination committee was chaired by Father Henryk S\u0141AWI\u0143SKI, also from the Pontifical John Paul II University in Cracow.<br \/>\nAfter the dissertation was presented, those attending heard two reviews from the supervisors who confirmed the high value of the doctoral dissertation and gave it a very positive evaluation.<br \/>\nNext, the members of the examination committee asked Friar Rados\u0142aw some questions. Some of the other participants at the meeting, lay people as well as clergy, also took advantage of this opportunity.<br \/>\nAfter Friar Rados\u0142aw had answered the questions, the examination committee met behind closed doors. After a while, the members emerged to announce their unanimous decision to recommend that the Council of Theological Sciences confer the title \u201cDoctor of Theological Sciences\u201d upon Friar Rados\u0142aw KRAMARSKI.<br \/>\nThose attending the defense of the doctoral dissertation included: Friar Mariusz KOZIO\u0141, the Vicar of the Province of Cracow; Friars Roman BANASIK, Boles\u0142aw RACZEK and Piotr CUBER from the Cracow friary; Friar Przemys\u0142aw JANIK from the Szklarska Por\u0119ba friary; Friar Rafa\u0142 ANTOSZCZUK from the Sanok friary; and Friar Ryszard WR\u00d3BEL from the Wroc\u0142aw friary. In addition, there were some priests from the Archdiocese of Cracow, the Archdiocese Przemy\u015bl, Poland; the Diocese of Sosnowiec, Poland; and the Diocese of Bielsko-\u017bywiec, Poland. Also attending were faithful from the parishes in Rychwa\u0142d, D\u0105browa G\u00f3rnicza-Go\u0142on\u00f3g and Wroc\u0142aw, as well as friends and acquaintances of Friar Rados\u0142aw.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Text and photos: Friar Ryszard WR\u00d3BEL<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 13, 2022, Friar Rados\u0142aw KRAMARSKI successfully defended his doctoral dissertation at the Pontifical John Paul II University in Cracow.
