Resumo: |
The present study analyses the Economy of Communion (EoC), a Project launched within the Focolare Movement - a Catholic, Ecumenical, Interreligious and Intercultural Movement present in 182 countries. The study is based on the hypotheses that the EoC represents a possible means of Catholicism to influence the economic system by acting simultaneously both at civil and religious level. The importance and relevancy of this study lies in the fact that it introduces the EoC in a wider context according to the theory of Social Systems by Niklas Luhmann, which understands modern societies as an entity composed of sub-systems, each of them representing diversified, specialized and relatively autonomous, but inter-related functions for the maintenance and evolution of the major society. Thus religion is recognized as a system co-existing side by side with others, finding ways to maintain itself in relation to them, once it lost its hegemony as a source for social order. Based on the analyses to the emergence, delimitation and the role of the EoC according to Luhmann s approach, the present study argues that EoC can be considered a means in which Catholicism influences non-religious fields by assuming an inter-systemic relation |
