The current doctrine of the Church about the political Perspective for the V General Conference of the Latin American Episcopate, in Aparecida, Brazil, 2007
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
The Fifth General Conference of the Latin American Bishops (Aparecida, Brazil, May 2007) offers the occasion to study the doctrine of the Church on the evangelization of the political world and to revise documents such as the Catechism, that of Santo Domingo and the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church. In Latin America the pastoral need of confronting new political challenges is felt: the active defense of human rights, the so-called «caudillismos», intercontinental relations, ecology, integration, the new left, etc. It has been proposed that some permanent deacons be prepared and may assume the mission of evangelizing the political world, in front of the activism of non-catholic pastors, following the steps of Thomas More, so that a true discipleship may be established among governing persons and politicians.
