Science and love: believe, create and build the 21st century UCB

Abstract

The slogan that has guided the mission of the Universidad Católica Boliviana for more than fifty years, veritas in caritate (truth in charity), is the perfect combination of Fromm's arguments: the search for truth as a tool for emancipation through of science (almost in the same spirit of the Gospel of John and the phrase “the truth will set us free”) and the management of love as a devout tool of social change.
