Description

Set against the backdrop of Mallorca during a transformative period in Spanish history, this work delves into the activities and influence of Acción Católica Española from 1931 to 1959. The author meticulously chronicles how this religious organization adapted to the social and political changes of the time, navigating through crises while trying to maintain its mission. The narrative reveals how its members transitioned from ecclesiastical spaces to the streets, aiming to spread their message amidst the challenges of an evolving society.

Matas i Pastor's exploration brings to light the interplay between faith, identity, and activism, shedding light on the complex relationship between Catholicism and the local culture. Supported by insightful contributions from other notable figures, including a preface by Sebastià Serra Busquets and a presentation by Feliciano Montero, this work offers a comprehensive perspective on the significant role of faith-based movements in shaping community dynamics in Mallorca during the mid-20th century.
