Canon 384

1. As ministers of reconciliation of all in the love of Christ,

clerics are to take measures to foster among all people peace,

unity and harmony based on justice. 2. Clerics are not to have

an active part in political parties nor in the supervision of

labor unions unless, in the judgment of the eparchial bishop or,

if particular law so states, of the patriarch or of another authority, the need to protect the rights of the Church or to promote the common good requires it.
