Abstract
VERA-GARCIA, Víctor M and DUARTE-TELLO, Francisco. The right of freedom to profess the Catholic faith in the face of restrictions of movement and assembly in the wake of COVID-19. Polít. globalidad. ciudad. [online]. 2021, vol.7, n.14, pp.152-180. Epub Nov 04, 2022. ISSN 2395-8448. https://doi.org/10.29105/pgc7.14-8.
This article is the result of research focused on analyzing the way in which Catholic believers began to live and continue to live their faith in the wake of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. It aims to unravel whether the mobility and assembly restriction measures dictated by different governments took into account religious expressions and to describe how Catholic parishioners and authorities adapted to such circumstances. The research technique of the work is hermeneutic, and the type of research is qualitative. The research findings show a change in the way worshippers profess their faith, accentuated by the pandemic and its restrictions. The various tools provided by audiovisual, digital and social media have been adapted for religious worship.
