ONATE JORQUERA, Erick. Characteristics of the ecclesial relational environment of abuse of power. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2024, vol.86, n.3, pp.609-635.  Epub 09-Ago-2024. ISSN 2594-0651.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iis.01882503p.2024.3.62606.

This article has been constructed from life stories of victims/survivors of power abuse and/or sexual abuse perpetrated by priests of the Catholic Church. It shows that the context in which the abuses occur is composed of a corpus of beliefs, a relational environment based on domination, and sociocultural elements that, together, operate as risk factors or factors that invisibilize, naturalize, or allow abuses. It also makes explicit that such a context, coupled with the abusive interaction of the perpetrator and the relational harms that emerge, is part of a systemic relational labyrinth.

Palabras llave : abuse of power; adultcentrism; clericalism; domination.
