II. The Common Good
1907
First, the common good presupposes respect for the person as such. In the name
of the common good, public authorities are bound to respect the fundamental and
inalienable rights of the human person. Society should permit each of its
members to fulfill his vocation. In particular, the common good resides in the
conditions for the exercise of the natural freedoms indispensable for the
development of the human vocation, such as “the right to act according to
a sound norm of conscience and to safeguard . . . privacy, and rightful freedom
also in matters of religion.”27
