Consonances and dissonances between the secular and the religious. A bishop and his lay legate

Abstract:

In this paper, different characteristics about bishop Luis Alberto Luna Tobar life, work and his involvement with the more vulnerable people, are discussed. His auto transformation as person and his legacy as a bishop inside a post conservative city, is here treated. We tackle around conceptual sources about his activity, some expressions of his character and personality, his citizenship role, journalist writings and activism. Human rights and his commitment with the university, are perhaps his most relevant axes on his daily activity. Our vision comes from accumulative memories about him, dialogues and friendship developed with the emeritus archbishop of the andean city of Cuenca in Ecuador. Selective interviews are included and commented to clarify aspects regarding “Teología de la Liberación”, post influences from Vatican Concilium II, Medellin and Puebla Documents, as new points of view and convergence, facing church and catholic new tendencies.
