The invisible politics of religion: Catholic Third sector and territorial welfare in the Basque Country and Italy
Résumé
Interactions between politics and religion are frequently reduced to mediatiz ed and politicized ethical and civilizational issues. Focusing instead on the role of religious - here Catholics - actors in the local experiences of social economy and welfare in times of economic crisis helps instead to highlight the discrete interactions between politics and religion . In particular, the strong involvement of religious actors, beyond their traditional charity - oriented activity, also concerns more solidarity - oriented socioeconomic experiences as well as political advocacy . These articulations generate new forms of politicization with respect to both social movements and policy makers. These issues are addressed here comparatively in a Spanish (Basque Autonomous Community) and an Italian (Emilia - Romagna) region.
