Revision
The Corinthians XIII magazine In this issue, he proposes the interventions and contributions of the Integral Ecology Seminar «Rural Spain, a challenge for evangelization and care for creation». Seminar held at the headquarters of the Fundació Pablo VI on 13, 20 and 27 September 2021, coinciding with the Season of Creation which leads us to the date of 4 October, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi.
Finding the reasons why a theme of this type appears in a journal of pastoral theology is not very difficult: it is a matter of a reality, like the rural world, which in many respects is subject to discard and exclusion. Sufficient reasons were given in the Seminar to support this judgment. This is the case of the presentation of the FOESSA Report on what concerns the economic and social challenges of the rural world, analyzed by Raúl Flores, secretary and coordinator of studies at Cáritas; such as the reflections of professor Enrique Lluc, on the economic characteristics of what until now has been defined as “emptied Spain”. And already in a concrete way the reality of such human integration as the Arraigo Project is provided.
