Vol. 34 No. 3 (2021)The late 1960s and early 1970s development of liberation discourses (postcolonial, racial, ethnic, gender, environmental, etc.) resulted in them turning not only and not so much into an intellectual strategy, but instead, in their entering culture as social practices, and becoming the main patterns of behavior and models of thinking.

Christianity created a new cultural heritage upon the achievements of Athens and Rome, having respect for the legacy of the previous civilizations. There is no doubt that Christianity has made an important contribution to European culture. In this issue, an important place is given to the person of Pope John Paul II, whose teachings and thoughts appear in several texts.
