*Is Catholic*
The current go to document for social issues is
"Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church"
Which you can buy or just access on line here at the Vatican
http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/pontifical_councils/justpeace/documents/rc_pc_justpeace_doc_20060526_compendio-dott-soc_en.html
Scroll down until you find the section you are looking for. Follow the footnotes to get original documents from Vatican II and elsewhere.
FYI. Documents like the compendium are not superdogma. It contains dogma but the work is not a dogmatic work. In no way shape or form does the compendium take precedence over the dogmatic pronouncements of the Church (Vatican II, Papal Encyclicals, etc.).
