"If the memo published at the end of October 2011 by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace to propose the creation of a Global Public Authority in order to remedy the current financial crisis has received a lukewarm reception among even the Roman Curia, cardinal Peter Turkson considers that his dicastery has only done its duty. The Ghanaian cardinal wonders if he will be blamed for having cast doubt on liberal capitalism.

This past October 24, the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace presented to the press a memo aimed at the “reform of the international financial system in the context of a Public Authority with universal jurisdiction”. According to various sources, this document would have prompted the anger of the Secretary of State and the Pope himself, both considering that the dicastery of cardinal Turkson had not been given the responsibility of carrying out such a study, incidentally presented to the press on the eve of the G20 summit in Cannes. The Italian Vaticanist Sandro Magister maintains more precisely that this document has “upset several people, at the Vatican and elsewhere”, “that it is in flagrant contradiction of the Encyclical Caritas in veritate of Benedict XVI” and that, from now on, no writing will ever be published “without prior monitoring and authorization by the Secretariat of State”.

“For a memo like this one, and we have been publishing them for a long time, on the environment, on racism, etc…, nobody has ever asked us whether or not we had received the approval of the Vatican”, defended cardinal Turkson."
