Opis:The Catholic Church and youth were protagonists on the global stage during the Cold War. The following pages look at both agents in an effort to study the transnational interest in young people by the Catholic Church between the 1960s and 1980s. To do so, the paper analyzes the official discourse of this global institution and the political concept of youth that shaped the religion during the period in question. Subsequently, it examines how the interest in the Latin American youth was pursued and presents strategies on how the Catholic hierarchies organized these youth groups. Finally, it establishes a comparison with the Costa Rican case, where the global and Latin American discourses on Catholic youth were adapted by a country that sought to represent its youth as an isolated sector of the Central American region.
