Sumario: | Oscar Arnulfo Romero y Galdámez constitutes an important figure in the Latin American religious imaginary. His work transcends the walls of the temples and in a frank preferential option for the poor, he is committed to the building of a new civilization. His political praxis oriented from the lines of the Gospels knew how to recognize injustice in its multiple expressions, denounce military totalitarianisms and in turn infuse a hopeful message in the construction of a more humane society. This essay highlights his political and utopian perspective of his work, the same of a Church that confronts the powerful and makes a common home with the excluded. |
