Abstract:
This article focuses mainly on the spiritual world and dialogue of Matteo Ricci, a boundless traveler who navigates culture, philosophy, spirituality and natural science. This article looks at this spiritual world from the perspective of the modern Chinese situation to provide an in-depth explanation of the most important concepts and cases of Catholic Social Teachings: such as the theory of shared values, the consumer movement, fair labor conditions, respect for the interests of all stakeholders, trust and reliability of critical choices, and anti-corruption. According to Matteo Ricci’s spirit, today’s Catholic Social Teaching can definitely point out a direction for China, which is passing from economic development to sustainable economic development.
