ANDRES LUDUENA, Gustavo. Locality, Modernity and Mission Performance in the Migration of Catholic Believers to Argentina in the Early 20^th Century. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2010, vol.31, n.124, pp.91-121. ISSN 2448-7554.

During the final decades of the 19^th century and early years of the 20^th, a significant number of Catholic religious congregations and orders settled in different areas of Latin America. Characterized by encounters with a cultural "other" that emerged from a unique situation of geographical displacement, the deployment of a well-studied mission performance made it possible to construct evangelized and evangelizing localities destined to build a new Romanized Catholicism in the Latin American sphere.

Keywords : locality; modernity; mission; performance; Catholicism.
