The Church and the problem of borders. Part 1. The Position of Catholic bishops in the migration crises of 2015–2022

Abstracts

EN

The need to control and defend one’s borders is a condition for the survival of any organic system, including politically organized societies. Catholicism, as a universalist religion that has returned to its apolitical roots following the Second Vatican Council, has increasingly addressed the issue of borders from the perspective of moralism and pacifism. This creates a dilemma of loyalty for bishops serving within a community whose borders are contested. The two migration crises that began in 2015 and 2021 will serve as a natural experiment to analyze their attitudes towards this dilemma.
