MANOSALVA CORREA, ANDRÉS FELIPE. Church Hierarchy and the Elections of 5 June 1949 in Colombia. Anu. colomb. hist. soc. cult. [online]. 2014, vol.41, n.1, pp.157-177. ISSN 0120-2456.  https://doi.org/10.15446/achsc.v41n1.44853.

During the elections of 5 June 1949 in Colombia, the bishops and archbishops of the Catholic Church voiced their opinion regarding the exercise of vote. According to general opinion, the Church was homogeneously conservative and intractable with respect to communism and liberalism; however, the article shows that there were different positions within that hierarchy. Some were intractable, others less so, and there was even a special case of moderation: that of the then Bishop of Manizales, Luis Concha Córdoba.

Palavras-chave : church hierarchy; elections; Violence; communism; liberalism.
