Policarpo III
Catholicism, Public Space, and Political Opposition. Chile 1986-1989
This volume joins three that preceded it. One of them, which selects texts from the bulletin We cannot remain silent (1975-1981), and two that correspond to Policarpo for the periods 1981–1983 and 1983–1985. On this occasion, the publication's reflections and chronicles primarily take place in the final years of the military dictatorship. This period spans from the failure of efforts to shorten its duration, carried out through various strategies deployed by different opposition groups (social mobilization for some, mass popular rebellion for others), to the plebiscite where the citizenry rejected General Pinochet remaining president for an additional eight-year term. It also covers the first presidential and parliamentary elections after the 1973 coup d'état. In the ecclesiastical sphere, the period is marked by Pope John Paul II's visit to Chile in 1987 and the policy of reconciliation encouraged by the Vatican and the Archbishop of Santiago, Juan Francisco Fresno.
