Resumo: The text analyzes different aspects of the Catholic Church in Brazil, presenting them through theories of the church, from social sciences. After that there is a discussion about the tendency connected to the Theory of Freedom, so called “Freedom Cristianism”. It is said that the concept of “Inner Theories of Catholicism” is more appropriate to understand the inner processes of the Catholicism and that, nowadays, the Freedom Theory has been loosing space inside the religious scenery. This occurs due to inner reasons – such as the growing strength of the charismatic movement – and also due to external reasons – as the ascending of Neoliberalism. With that, this segment gets to a new posture of action which has as central idea the“from down to up” changes, during long terms. After all, there is the conclusion about a programmed step back of this tendency, which starts emphasizing its action inside de Church and valuing themes as spirituality, ecology and culture, for the political dimension.

Em seguida, discute-se a tendência ligada à Teologia da Libertação, chamada de Cristianismo da Libertação. Afirma-se que o conceito de “Tendências Internas do Catolicismo” é mais apropriado para compreender os processos internos do catolicismo e que, atualmente, a Teologia da Libertação vem perdendo espaço no cenário religioso. Isso ocorre em virtude de questões internas – como o fortalecimento do movimento carismático – e externas – como o advento do neoliberalismo. Diante dessa situação, esse segmento assume uma nova postura de atuação, que tem como idéia central a construção de mudanças “de baixo para cima” e em longo prazo. Conclui-se que houve um recuo programático dessa tendência que passa a priorizar sua ação no interior da Igreja e a valorizar temas como espiritualidade, ecologia e cultura em detrimento da dimensão política.FCL-UNESP Laboratório Editorial2009-04-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/1320Estudos de Sociologia; v. 14 n. 26 (2009)1982-47181414-0144reponame:Estudos de Sociologiainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/1320/1056Copyright (c) 2009 Estudos de Sociologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSofiati, Flávio Munhoz2021-05-12T13:46:37Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/1320Revistahttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudosPUBhttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/oaistraud.fclar@unesp.br||estudosdesociologia@fclar.unesp.br||maria.jardim@unesp.br1982-47181414-0144opendoar:2021-05-12T13:46:37Estudos de Sociologia - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
