Abstract

The research work came from the 14th Inter-Church of the CEBs, which took place in Londrina - Paraná, in January 2018 and aimed to identify if there are expressions of Liberation Christianity in the 21st century Brazilian Society, as well as understand the relationship between pope Francis guidelines and the referrals elaborated at the event and characterize the perspectives expressed by the subjects in the contemporary Brazilian context. The sources of the investigation are documents and data collected through 2,137 questionnaires answered by event attendees. It evidenced that there is a progressive political perspective in face of the current context of the 21st century in Brazil, adopting referrals with collective and social emphasis, indicating the urgency of the civil actions of Catholics present in the mechanisms of democratic and popular participation, in the fight for justice, in the defense of rights and in guaranteeing access to cities, with the strengthening of public policies.
