CAMPOS, Névio de  y  QUEIROS, Janete. Bishops Helmel’s and Cavallin’s theological and political positions (1978-1992). Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.01, pp.63-74. ISSN 2178-5201.

Current article discusses the interventions of bishops Frederico Helmel and Albano Cavallin from the diocese of Guarapuava. Paraná State, Brazil during the period between the initial publishing of the Diocesan Bulletin (1978) and the end of Cavallin´s tenancy (1992). The meanings attributed by the bishops to the Diocesan Bulletin are investigated and the theological positions and policies of the diocese of Guarapuava are analyzed. Research is foregrounded on the Bourdieu´s concepts of intellectual and symbolic power as producer of symbolic capital. Copies of the Diocesan Bulletin have been analyzed to discuss the hypothesis that the bishops used the publication to consolidate the positions of the Catholic Church in the diocese of Guarapuava, establishing it as the Church´s messenger and herald for Christian life among Catholics in the various parishes and to make the diocese´s position on theological and political issues.
