Abstracts

This study deals with several phenomena of the pontificate of Pope Francis in its historical context. It reflects some major recent works on the topic and discusses the shift in the priorities of current papacy towards global Catholicism and the systematic interest in the social, economic, and geographical margins of contemporary world. It examines the limits of the pontificate seen in vigorous opposition within the church and the post-resignation papacy of Benedict XVI. It also deals with the pope’s relation to the Second Vatican Council and his approach to resolving intra-church crises and tensions, as well as his efforts to restore the credibility and authority of the Catholic Church.
