  • John Paul II's Canonisation Policy
    Le pontificat romain dans l’époque contemporaine The Papacy in the Contemporary Age sous la direction de | edited by Giovanni Vian John Paul II’s Canonisation Policy Valentina Ciciliot (Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia) Abstract During his pontificate John Paul II proclaimed 1342 beati and 482 saints, such a large amount that it accounts for more than half of the sanctifications across the entirety of Catholicism stretching back to the Congregation of Rites (1588). Along with such fruitful use of sanctification came a certain planning that was not only pastoral in nature, but also political, in the broadest sense of the term. The essay aims to analyse how under John Paul II’s pontificate the traditional concept of holiness began to mutate, taking on multiple functions, while its concrete manifestations – beatifica- tions and canonisations – became active instruments of ecclesiastical government.

Catholic Church. 1 The Reform Legal System Relating to Canonisations The reforming of the legal structure regulating sanctity decreed by John Paul II in 1983 with the apostolic constitution Divinus perfectionis Ma- gister1 was aimed at adapting the system to the papal plans regarding canonisation activities, and mainly consisted of reducing the length of the beatification and canonisation causes, in this way incentivizing, multiply- ing and updating them.2 In fact, the examination of the new canonical process brought a number of important issues to light. Above of all, the reform significantly accelerated the carrying out of procedures, due to both the amalgamation of the ordinary apostolic processes and the halv- ing of the number of miracles to be beatified and canonized, reduced to one for each.
