These last ones are fed by the idea according to which theology of the liberation would have been the expression of an ample social movement, articulated with the destiny of the poor and marginal masses in Latin America. The vision was come off its character there radically progressive. The intention of this article indeed looks for to deconstruct the progressive value that was attributed to it. With base to reconstruction of its intransigent genealogy in the contemporary Catholicism, is to put in evidence its ambivalent relation with the ecclesial constituted power, apparently answered by it, as well as with the ideology that sub lies it.
