Geography and the Space of the Sacred
This book explores the geography of religion and the space of the sacred in the dynamics of the different manifestations of contemporary Christianity, in the face of the growth of Protestantism. For this, the analysis of the spirituality of Opus Dei is prioritized and the history of the emergence of the Roman doctrine and its dissemination until the present day is detailed. In order to understand the evolution of Western civilization, a sensitive approach to its religious spatiality is necessary.
