Colombia and the impact on struggles to maintain Colombian

The Catholic Church And Colombia : This 10 page paper
discusses the warfare in Colombia and the involvement of a
segment of the Catholic Church. An overview of what the new
president is attempting to do is presented first. This is followed
by a discussion of the Catholic Church in Colombia beginning
with a brief explanation of the Medellin Conference in the
1960s at which time a new theology was adopted in Latin
America. The new Liberation Theology, adopted at that time,
promotes a doctrine in opposition to the Catholic Church and it
has been continually denounced by the Pope. The writer
concludes that this new theology has exacerbated the problem
and the institution that should have helped the country has done
the exact opposite. Bibliography lists 11 sources. PGcolom.wps

Colombia / Development & Modernization : 8 pages in
length Colombia has sustained a considerable amount of
changes with regard to development and modernization.
Controlled modernization was a term coined to represent how
social pressures forced the political elite to take action.
Because of the existence of an all but stable political system,
there was significant room for the reigning elitists groups to
enact needed social changes. The answer to the people's
demand has come in the way of reform measures that, while
they have received a sponsored backing, have been implemented
in a cautious manner. The writer discusses development and
modernization as they relate to Colombia. Bibliography lists 6

also a long way from being a democracy since its president
