The
activities of INSTAURARE Our
aims have primarily been pursued through the uninterrupted publication of the
journal and the organisation of conferences. The conferences of the ŇFriends
of INSTAURARE" are now traditional yearly reunions,
which take place in August at the Madonna di Strada sanctuary, in Fanna
(Pordenone), at the feet of the Carnia pre-Alps. In August 2011, the 39th
conference took place. Study meetings, conferences, and round tables have
been organised in several Italian towns: Milano, Modena, Pavia, Pordenone,
Roma, San Colombano al Lambro, Udine, Venezia and so on. INSTAURARE
has tried, furthermore, to pursue its aims with some publications. Among
these, the following should be remembered: a)
AA.VV., Questione cattolica e questione democristiana [Catholic Matter
and Christian Democratic Matter] Padova, Cedam, 1987, which deals with the
issue of political modernism, which was supported and realised by the Italian
Christian Democratic Party; b) AA.VV., Eutanasia del Cattolicesimo? [Euthanasia
of Catholicism?], Napoli, Edizioni Scientifiche Italiane, 1990, which is a
radical criticism of the theological and exegetical Gnosticism of one of the
most famous contemporary Italian Bible scholars (Rinaldo Fabris); c)
P. G. GRASSO, Costituzione e secolarizzazione [Constitution and
Secularisation], Padova, Cedam, 2002, which is a critical ŇreadingÓ of the
political secularisation process which was implemented (on the legal level)
by the Italian 1947 Constitution, was coherently developed by the Republican
legislation, and consolidated by Court Decisions, particularly by the
Constitutional Court. Some
of the contributions published in INSTAURARE have
been widely considered in Italian and foreigner journals, and have been
republished in various books. Last
