Summary/Abstract: Over the years, the social teaching of the Roman Catholic Church was formed, which sees the conditions and foundations for peace. These are: the dignity of the human person, the natural law, human rights, common good, truth, freedom, love and social justice. After Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation, the most important role of the preceptor in the Church of Rome fulfills Francis - the pope from Argentina. Although his pontificate is not long, and teaching is not complete, but you can tell that he continues to build the social doctrine of the Roman Church in matters of peace through the development of so-called “culture of encounter”. Based on selected speeches and letters of few years’ pontificate of Francis, the first figure of “culture of encounter” can be lined out as a way of preventing and resolving tensions in the contemporary world.
