The Catholic and Their Influences
Keywords:
.Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the strategies of social influence
adopted by contemporary Catholic Church inferred from the way of action
and communication showed by its militants. The systematic observation of
published documents of one particular Catholic parish in Brazil allows us to
understand some aspects of the divergent strategy of influence, which was
based: 1) on the regularity and coherence of diffusion of changing messages
to the local population and to the large society; 2) on the flexibility in
combining elements of Catholicism with the aspirations and the culture of the
dominated groups; 3) on the effort and the risk lived by the militants
themselves facing the dominant groups of that time.
