Welcome to Father Araujo!

As his debut post below shows, Robert Araujo, S.J. has joined MOJ as our latest blogista. Father Araujo is no stranger to Catholic legal scholars, having been a member of the law faculty at Gonzaga for many years. He has just moved to Rome as the Vedovato Chair in Ethics in International Relations, a fitting reward for his distinguished scholarship as well as service with the Holy See's Mission at the UN. He will bring to our blog group not only much needed expertise in the Catholic conception of international law and relations, but will be our "man in Rome!" I look forward to seeing Bob in September, when he will be back as a speaker at the Journal of Catholic Social Thought's symposium on John Courtney Murray. Please join me in welcoming Father Araujo to our company!
