Infos

The 28th edition of the Msgr. W. Onclin Chair, held on 24 February 2023, explored the intricate relationship between canon law and synodality, a topic central to the Church's evolving governance structures. This book compiles the thought-provoking contributions from leading scholars who examined how canon law both shapes and is shaped by the principles of synodality. Rooted in the rich tradition of the Synod of Bishops and inspired by Pope Francis' emphasis on a synodal Church, the book delves into historical developments, legal frameworks and contemporary challenges. Key discussions address the delicate balance between episcopal collegiality, papal authority and the active participation of the People of God. Through multidisciplinary perspectives, the contributions highlight the dynamic tension between tradition and innovation, authority and consultation.
