Summary/Abstract: In the Transylvanian Diocese, just as in the universal Church, there is an underlying ambition to formulate practical answers to the era’s social issues through the various institutionalized forms of fraternal love. In this regard, the Roman Catholic Status of Transylvania and the education system directly maintained by the Diocese constitute the most significant factors. In addition, several other attempts may also be considered that have been trying to provide answers to the social issues of the past centuries. The present study is an investigation into the impact of the social documents of the Catholic Church on the Transylvanian Diocese, or the Diocese of Alba Iulia, lately also known as the Archdiocese.
