La quasi formalizzazione dei rapporti tra Stato e Chiesa cattolica in Messico dopo il terremoto del 1985

Abstract

The article reconstructs the relationship between the government and the Catholic Church that took place in Mexico City after the 1985 earthquake. This proximity is considered to have generated an important “first step” towards the 1992 constitutional reform. In particular, it is described as in this stage, the Catholic Church, without a Juridic recognition, has managed to develop institutional relations, formalizing political and financial relations with the government.
