It may be defined as the legislation by which the "orte of the missions is regul­ ated, and it embraces the precepts of divide and ecclesiast­ ical law, the universal law of the Church as well as the particular laws of a determined mission region, the general laws binding all the faithful as well as special laws for particular classes of persons, the common law of the Code as well as exceptional law contained in indults, privileges, and faculties. While there are various sources of Mission Law such as the Code of Canon Law, documents issued by the Soman Pontiffs, statutes of provincial Councils, etc, the laws, decrees, ordinances, and decisions of the Sacred Con­ gregation of Propaganda take the principal place. Because of conditions and circumstances peculiar to missions this Sacred Congregation has made particular legislation on dif­ ferent matters for these regions which requires special con­ sideration. An attempt will be made in this thesis to con­ sider a piece of such legislation, namely, regarding the Vioar Delegate of Mission Ordinaries. When the New Code of Canon Law appeared it enumerated local Ordinaries, and in that enumeration included the Vicars General of residential Bishops, abbots and prelates nullius but made no mention of Vicars General of ¥icsrs and Prefects -£- Apostolic, (I). However, some thought that Vicars and Prefects Apostolic oould appoint their own Vicars General. But In its Letter of Deo. 8th, 1919, the Saored Congregation stated that the Code of Canon Law did not concede to them the right to choose a Vicar General as is possessed by residential Bishops. (2). It also stated that the Holy Father, Benedict XV on WOT. 6th, 1919 had granted a sanation for the invalid acts placed by those missionaries who had acted ss Vicars General. Moreover, the Holy Father gave to Mission Ordinaries the right to appoint a Vicar Delegate, If they needed one, who was to have practically the same Jurisdiction in spiritual and temporal natters as the Vicar General in a diooese. fhe Letter also added instructions regarding the Acuities, number and office of Vicars Delegate. After a brief historical introduction we will consider this new legislation regarding Viosrs Delegate, and explain his constitution, powers, duties, etc. Because the institution of the Vicars Delegate is so recent, the historical aspect of the matter will be concerned with a brief consideration of the origin of the Vioar General, and Mission legislation regarding that official on the missions, before the New Code, and up to the Letter of the Saored Congregation of Propaganda. The canonical commentary will necessarily form the major part of the thesis. (I). Can. 196, p.l, (2). S. C. de ?.F. Dec. 8th, 1919, — A.A.S. XII (1919), p.120, For the complete text of this important Letter see Appendix I* 2>— HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION Article I. Regarding the origin of the Vicar General, 1, In the administration of his diocese a Bishop has need of various officials who form his curia and aid him In the fulfillment of his office. Among these officials is the Vicar General. (S), We will consider the origin of the office of the Vlear General briefly because of the similarity between his office and that of the Vicar Delegate who is to the Vicar Apos­ tolic what the Vicar General Is to the Bishop. Since the term Is so frequently used we must note that a vicar is commonly defined as one who takes the place of or acts In the name of another. (4), 2. a). The Arohpriest. In the early church the clerics who lived with the Bishop aided him In the discharge of his various duties. They formed, as it were, his vicars, co-operators or auxiliaries. Priests especially were engaged in duties relating to things spiritual while deacons were entrusted with what referred to temporal administration. The priest who was senior by virtue of hts ordination came to be known as the Aroh­ priest or Protopriest. Sometimes, however, the appointment of the Arohpriest was due to his merit rather than precedence In ordination, in which case he was known as the "grand vleaire", (3). Can. 363, p.2. (4).

The Arohpriest principally had charge of things con­ cerning divine worship In the episcopal church and supervised the duties of the ecclesiastical ministry. Also, he assisted the Bishop during liturgical ceremonies, often supplying for him in such matters as preaching, the administration of Sacra­ ments and the celebration of divine services* Hence his pos­ ition gradually assumed a special Importance since he had a certain authority over the other clerics.

Applies to the worldwide Catholic church . Promulgated by the Holy See . Most recent major revision: 1983 . Large body of supporting information EPISCOPAL CONFERENCE NORMS .

The Holy See reviews the norms to assure that they are not in conflict with Catholic doctrine and universal legislation . These norms may be a clarification or refinement of Canon law, but may not supercede Canon law . Diocesan Bishops have to follow norms only if they are considered “binding decrees” • Norms become binding when two-thirds of the Episcopal Conference vote for them and the norms are reviewed positively by the Holy See . Each Diocesan Bishop implements the norms in his own diocese; however, there is DIOCESAN STATUTES AND NORMS . Apply within the Diocese only . Promulgated and modified by the Bishop .

Castillo August, 2017 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of the Catholic Church in defining racial categories and construction of the social order during and after the Spanish conquest of Mexico, then New Spain. The Catholic Church, at both the institutional and local levels, was vital to Spanish colonization and exercised power equal to the colonial state within the Americas. Therefore, its interests, specifically in connection to internal and external “threats,” effected New Spain society considerably. The growth of Protestantism, the Crown’s attempts to suppress Church influence in the colonies, and the power struggle between the secular and regular orders put the Spanish Catholic Church on the defensive. Its traditional roles and influence in Spanish society not only needed protecting, but reinforcing. As per tradition, the Church acted as cultural center once established in New Spain. However, the complex demographic challenged traditional parameters of social inclusion and exclusion which caused clergymen to revisit and refine conceptions of race and gender.
