Europe and its crisis in the papal considerations of John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Francis. Introduction to content analysis

Summary/Abstract: The crisis of European integration has released three still current attitudes towardsChristianity. The first assumes that Europe in its present shape betrayed Christianity,by itself becoming an anti‑Christiancreation and ruin for its Church. So Europe is badand integration with it is integration with evil. The second one boils down to acceptancefor European integration, but after eliminating or taking into account many dangers.Europeanity should be adopted here at least carefully, if not selectively. The third assumesfavor for Europe without major threats to national and religious identity. This, however,does not mean adopting a vision of Europe as a comprehensive medicine, but a consciousacceptance of the realities in which we lived.Three successive Popes refer to all these attitudes, who devoted many of theirspeeches to the crisis condition of Europe and European integration. They are fullyproven by the fragments of their writings and speeches selected for this purpose. The authorof the work, both in the case of John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Franciszek, decided toconsciously give their words to readers ‑both scientific (philosophical, political, historicaland linguistic‑discursive)and spiritual, leaving them without commentary and furtherdeliberations at this point hermeneutical.
