dc.description.abstractAfter many centuries during which the church has remained anchored close to the rural world, the cities are increasingly becoming its concern. The 1990 Encyclical letter by John Paul II redemptoris Mission (RMO 37b) indicates among the "New worlds and new social phenomena"' which are the parameters of the church's mission ad gentes, urbanization and the massive growth of cities. EM suggests that these phenomena change the image of the mission which should now concentrate on the big cities, not only for quantiatative factors (demographic explosion and accumulation), but because of the impact that the city has on the wider population. In fact EM speaks of new customs and styles of living which arise together with new forms of culture and communication. The stress is on culture, or rather, on the cultural change which is taking place in the cities, which are "centres where a new humanity, so to speak, is emergeing, and where new models of development are taking shape." The emphasis on the cultural change is also mentioned in RM 37c speaking about the new areopagus of the modern world of communications which is unifying.en_US
