Igreja e Estado no Brasil oitocentista

um diálogo com La Iglesia católica y la formación del Estado-nación en América Latina en el siglo XIX. El caso colombiano, de Luis Javier Ortiz Mesa

Abstract

The article intends to compare the relationship between State and Church
in Brasil and Colombia during the nineteenth century. In both nations there
are some similarities – as the diffusion of liberal and anticlerical ideas and
the permanence of patronage over the Church –, but we can also identify
strikingly differences. The most important perhaps in degree of radicalism
and the political partisanship present in the disputes between the liberal
and Ultra Catholic Colombians.
