Summary
The Vatican City State's DCCII/2024 Decree on Artificial Intelligence establishes a unique regulatory framework that stands out globally for its theological foundation and doctrinal coherence. Unlike secular models, the decree integrates Catholic Social Teaching, offering a distinct moral perspective rooted in theological anthropology. It aligns with but diverges from EU, U.S., and UNESCO guidelines, presenting Vatican City as a stable and ethically consistent voice in AI governance. The study employs an interdisciplinary approach—legal, political, and theological—to demonstrate how this normative model ensures institutional stability while addressing contemporary ethical debates.
