Las investigaciones históricas sobre el vaticano ii. estado de la cuestión y perspectivas de trabajo

Abstract

The scientific literature on Vatican II is very large and of varied quality. Discernment is needed. In its analysis, three areas can be distinguished. First, a historical one, which studies the event itself, its preparation and development. Second, the systematic studies, in which particular emphasis is placed on the hermeneutic perspective. Third, panoramas or specific research that relate to the various and multiple processes of reception, mainly by the regional approach. This article gives an account only of the historical research. The purpose is to present the most relevants texts and authors and discern the lines of work and main arguments. The text highlights in a particular way the latin american contributions.
