RESUMO

From the mid-Nineteenth century on, the Catholic Church has undergone a process of romanization, ie, the institutional centralization and unification according to the directives of the Roman Curia, in order to integrate all the world's Catholics around the figure of the Pope. In Latin America the process of Romanization meant the end of the regime of Padroado, which had turned the kings of Spain and Portugal (and later the emperor of Brazil) into "patrons" of the Church. The process of Romanization - animated by a "comprehensive" and even "fundamentalist" Catholicism - has promoted a renewal in the ecclesiastical structures and the ecclesial life in Latin American Churches. In this process - whose causes and forms are here analyzed -, the Plenary Council of Latin America (Rome, 1899) was an important event and the Brazilian Catholic Church is a significant example.
