One hundred years of the future bring us closer to Giuseppe Toniolo (1845-1918), the great Catholic economist and sociologist proclaimed blessed by the Church in 2012.
He was leader of the Catholic movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, promoter of rerum novarum and of social doctrine, a Christian model of lay holiness, that "next door" indicated by Pope Francis in the apostolic exhortation Gaudete et exultate.

Today we rediscover the extraordinary relevance for the future of his thought and action, an example of faith and life that synthesizes the fullness of hope in the Risen One, a creative genius that faces the challenges of time and traces the paths of a new humanism. , for a "society of saints".
