Thomas Aquinas: Church–State Relationship | western Political thought | Notes (Major 1, 3rd Sem)


Thomas Aquinas — one of the greatest medieval thinkers — tried to bridge the gap between Faith and Reason.
In this short explanation, we’ll understand how Aquinas viewed the Church and the State as two distinct yet cooperative institutions meant to guide human life — the Church in the spiritual sphere, and the State in the temporal one.
