Argentina: the role of the Catholic Church in the time of the military in question. The Argentine Catholic Church, whose former head is the current Pope Francis, is engaged this year in a complicated retrospective work.
The last Argentine dictatorship, between 1976 and 1983, left 30,000 dead or disappeared. In two volumes of nearly 1,000 pages – a third will soon be published – the Argentine Church is thus trying an unprecedented exercise in introspection and self-criticism, so to speak.
