Síntese: Esta pesquisa propõe uma Análise Institucional (AI) “no papel”, do movimento religioso Renovação Carismática Católica (RCC), que surgiu dentro da Igreja Católica a partir de 1967 e que se expandiu amplamente, marcando forte presença no Brasil, e de modo particular no Estado de São Paulo. Neste artigo, apresentamos uma possibilidade de leitura paradigmática que permite contextualizar o movimento da RCC no cenário eclesial católico. Essa modalidade de análise foi realizada apenas a partir de revisão bibliográfica e análise documental, operando a partir de uma grade conceitual da AI e de estudos acadêmicos do campo da Psicologia Social que se ocupam com fenômenos religiosos. Podemos considerar que a RCC, bem como seu modo de funcionamento institucional, está alinhado com o Paradigma Romano, que é hegemônico no contexto eclesial católico.Palavras-chave: Psicologia social. Análise institucional. Renovação carismática católica. Paradigmas eclesiais.Abstract: This research proposes an Institutional Analysis (IA) “on paper” of the Catholic Charismatic Renovation (CCR) movement, which emerged in the Catholic Church in 1967 and has greatly expanded, marking strong presence in Brazil, and particularly in the State of São Paulo. In this paper, we present the possibility of a paradigmatic reading that allows to contextualize the CCR movement in the ecclesiastical scenario. This type of analysis was performed only from literature review and documentational analysis, operating from a conceptual grid of IA and academic studies in the field of social psychology dealing with religious phenomena. We can consider that the CCR, as well as its mode of institutional operation, is aligned with the Roman Paradigm, which is hegemonic in the Catholic ecclesiastical context.Keywords: Social psychology. Institutional analysis. Catholic charismatic renovation. Ecclesiastical paradigms.

The social doctrine of the Catholic Church is an indication of the active involvement of the Church in disseminating the ideas ofthe welfare state and it reflects its attempts to establish ideals of the welfare state through an external influence on the ideology of countriesthat belong to Christendom.Furthermore, one cannot ignore the fact that encyclicals had a direct or indirect influence on the adoption of the first social protectionacts in Catholic Europe where encyclicals played an important role.As a result, the Holy See aligned itself with the labour movement.Considering the fact that papal encyclicals covered the entire Catholic World, these documents can be viewed as an example ofinternational soft law.The first social rights, principles, and values in the area of social protection were enshrined in the encyclicals.Social rights belong to second-generation human rights the legal basis for which comprises international instruments adoptedafter the Second World War (the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), the Convention for the Protection of Human Rightsand Fundamental Freedoms (1950), the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (1966), the European SocialCharter (Revised) (1965–1996), the European Code of Social Security (1964), meaning 50 years after these rights were enshrined inpapal encyclicals.There is an indisputable fact that has still not been discussed in scientific research on social protection and according to whichthe social doctrine of the Catholic Church can be viewed as an inherent part of the process of occurrence, formation, and developmentof social protection, and it can be regarded as an ideological framework, a source of social rights and principles of social protection.Considering the above-mentioned findings, the social doctrine of the Catholic Church can be defined as the body of legislationadopted by the Holy See regarding the status and development of social and labour rights, their place in a person’s life and in publiclife. Papal encyclicals form the basis of that legislation and they are addressed to believers, bishops, and archbishops.

The Relationship

This article discusses ways in which the São Paulo human rights short film festival-Entretodos developed between 2013 and 2016. It considers the festival from the perspective of a coordinator and promoter, discussing its achievements within the socio-political context of this global city, and of Brazil more broadly, where there has been resistance to advances in human rights culture (HRC). Data from the festival gave rise to an analysis of the relationship between art and emancipation, which is presented here from a philosophical perspective. The author illustrates how the experience of hosting a human rights short film festival in São Paulo has led to the development of a municipal human rights education (HRE) policy and to the conviction that art and citizenship, including learning for citizenship, human right and conviviality, can go hand-in-hand. The article argues for a pedagogy of sensibility, which centres learners’ humanity, as an approach to HRE.

This article analyses the responses of the Catholic Church in Croatia and Italy to the refugee crisis, particularly the churches’ discourses on human rights issues and positions in public debates on refugees and migrants. Although both Catholic churches followed the Church’s teachings on ‘strangers’, associated with providing concrete help to people in need, the Catholic Church in Croatia pursued what can be classified as a charitable approach, while the Catholic Church in Italy followed solidarity and utilitarian approaches. Equally, the Catholic Church in Croatia remained a silent public actor in the refugee crisis, while the Catholic Church in Italy became a prominent actor in public debates, engaging with human rights discourses. The selective and ambivalent uses of human rights discourses emerged as a factor in understanding these two churches’ different positions on refugees and migrants.
