| 总结: | Series one consists of general departmental files, 1920-1959, which include reports, 1920-1950, budgets and financial records, 1937-1943, personnel files and inter-office memoranda, 1925-1943, statements by the department as well as the bishops, n.d., and files on publications and pamphlet orders and other papers. The next three series consist of records of of various bodies sponsored by the department. Series two is the National Catholic Social Action Conferences, 1938-1939, which were the largest and most important meetings to that time on Catholic social teaching and its application to American economic life. Series three entails the Inter American Seminars on Social Studies, 1942-1946, which, supported by the U.S. government, involved bringing together leaders in the social, economic, and labor relations fields from throughout the Western Hemisphere to meet for discussion. The programs were arranged for and conducted by the Social Action Department. The first seminar met in Washington in 1942 and then journeyed across the country. The war kept the seminar from meeting again until 1946 when it met in Havana. The success of these meetings prompted the formation of the Inter American Social Action Confederation; and the Inter American Catholic Social Action Confederation, 1948-1952. Series four contains the Inter American Catholic Social Action Confederation which was affiliated with the NCWC and worked with the Pan American Union and the United Nations to address international social and economic problems. Meetings of delegates were held in cities such as Rio de Janeiro, San Salvador, and Mexico City. |
