LADB Article Id: 51034 ISSN: 1060-4189 Fernando Lugo Assumes Paraguayan Presidency, Ending One-Party Rule by LADB Staff Category/Department: Paraguay Published: 2008-08-29 Fernando Lugo was inaugurated president of Paraguay on Aug. 15, becoming the country's first president in over six decades not to belong to the Asociacion Nacional Republicano (ANR, Partido Colorado). The former Roman Catholic bishop, running with the Alianza Patriotica para el Cambio (APC) coalition, won the April election against the Colorados and other opposition parties by a broad margin (see NotiSur, 2008-04-25). His rise to power marks the end of 61 years of one-party rule in Paraguay, and he has promised to fight the widespread corruption and poverty that marked those years, although fulfilling that promise will be a massive challenge. Almost shouting to swear that he would uphold the Constitution, the typically mild-mannered Lugo was met with thundering cheers from more than 50,000 Paraguayans crowded around a stage outside Congress in the capital Asuncion.

  • Zimbabwean Church Leaders: Opposition Voters Targeted for Torture,Monks Search for New Ways to Support Mepkin Abbey,Cardinal
    Zimbabwean church leaders: Opposition voters targeted for torture CAPE TOWN, South Africa – Zimbabwe’s Christian leaders have called for international intervention in the country’s crisis, saying that those accused of voting for the opposition in March 29 elections are being tortured, abducted and murdered. “We warn the world that if nothing is done to help the people of Zimbabwe from their predicament, we shall soon be witnessing genocide similar to that experienced in Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi and other hot spots in Africa and elsewhere,” said the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops’ Conference, the Zimbabwe Council of Churches and the Evangelical Fellowship of Zimbabwe in an April 22 statement from the capital, Harare. Noting that they recently “issued statements commending Zimbabweans for the generally peaceful and politically mature manner in which they conducted themselves before, during and soon after the elections,” the leaders said recent reports from their churches throughout the country gave cause for alarm. “Organized violence perpetrated against individuals, families and communities who are accused of campaigning or voting for the ‘wrong’ political party … has been unleashed throughout the country, particularly in the countryside and in some high- density urban areas,” they said. “People are being abducted, tortured, humiliated by being asked to repeat slogans of the political party they are alleged not to support, ordered to attend mass meetings where they are told they voted for the ‘wrong’ candidate and should never repeat it in the

  • The Practical Implications of Pope Francis' Culture Of
    The Practical Implications of Pope Francis’ Culture of Encounter and its Objectives of Establishing and Maintaining Peace in East Asia Angeli Francis S. Rivera Abstract: This article explores the realization of Culture of Encounter or COE in Pope Francis’ objectives of sharing the expertise of the Church in establishing peace and security in the East Asian region. The researcher used text-based analysis in reading Pope Francis’ prepared and impromptu speeches in his Apostolic Journeys in East Asia. An author-based analysis is also utilized to align the aims of COE in Pope Francis’ Apostolic Journeys. Since the last East Asian country visited was in 1995 by John Paul II, Pope Francis’ interest in the region was reawakened. The researcher finds that the East Asian countries that Pope Francis’ visited are ‘geographical peripheries’. The highlights in his apostolic journeys are consistent with the COE’s four principles of building a people of peace found in sections 222-237 of his Apostolic Exhortation, Evangelii Gaudium. Furthermore, as far as the assessment is concerned, Pope Francis’ Apostolic Journeys have a significant impact on the growth of peace in the region. Keywords: Apostolic Journeys • Culture of Encounter • East Asia • Peace • Pontifical Diplomacy • Pope Francis Introduction Vatican spokesperson Federico Lombardi said in an interview that Pope Francis’ (PF)1 Asian agenda reveals Dr. Angeli Francis S.

More specifically, a number of studies have clearly demonstrated not only the manipulation of religion in the hands of nationalists but also the tacit support that churches and religious communities lent to warring factions in the former Yugoslavia.1 Others characterised the involvement of organised religion in the former Yugoslavia as a challenge to democratic pluralism and a serious threat to interethnic peace and coexistence. Looking closer at most of these accounts, no author singled out the essential features of religion, such as claims of truth or righteousness from God, but rather the specific political uses that religious, and often nonreligious, actors made of these claims.

  • The Diplomatic Activity of the Holy See1
    Orlando Antonini* UDC 341.215.1:272 341.76 Communication THE DIPLOMATIC ACTIVITY OF THE HOLY SEE1 Honorable Rector, Professors and Students of Megatrend University, Civil and Religious Authorities, dear Colleagues of the Diplomatic Corps, Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen, Following other colleagues ambassadors who have done it already, I gladly accepted the warm pressing invitation of your new Rector, Slobodan Pajović, to give today, in this academic arena, a lecture on the Diplomatic Activity of the Holy See. This is particularly important because this year marks the hundredth anni- versary of the Concordat between the Holy See and the then Kingdom of Serbia. It may seem strange to many people that the Catholic Church should engage in diplomacy, given that diplomatic activity is the prerogative of States deriv- ing directly from their being constituted as sovereign entities with respect to other States. So, I think is it appropriate to say something about this aspect of the Church’s mission, to be followed with a brief history of the Papal diplomacy in general, its aims and the tasks of the Apostolic Nuncios. 1. A Terminological Clarification To begin with, I would like to clarify at least two issues of terminology. First Many commentators often speak of “Vatican diplomacy”, and some question the value of accrediting diplomatic representatives to the Vatican, which is the smallest independent State in the world. In reality, Vatican City State, as such, does not maintain diplomatic relations with any State, although technically it could. Vatican City State exists merely to guarantee the autonomy of the Holy See, which for centuries, because of its spiritual sovereignty, has been recognised as a subject of international law.
