Questioning the Pope
The pontificate of Pope Francis is proving to be one of the most controversial within the Catholic world, particularly because of the several objections and protests it has raised in the most traditional currents of Catholicism. This theological and political opposition to Bergoglio's pontificate has been the subject of many studies, which have focused, in particular, on the growing harshness of this debate in North American Catholic circles. Fol…
Catholic Church's Communication in the Era of Bergoglio
Nowadays, several pieces of research underline the international impact of Pope Francis's messages and actions far beyond the Catholic community, especially thanks to the effects of his online presence. In the same year of his enthronement, Pope Francis was already the second most-followed leader of the world on Twitter-just behind former U.S. President Barack Obama-and he is currently the most active and followed religious leader on Instagram. B…
The Online Intersection among Islamophobia, Populism, and Hate Speech
Online radical Islam is a topic widely studied by scholars and notoriously discussed among non- experts as well (Awan, 2007; Von Behr et al. 2013; Gray & Head 2009).

However, in the last decade, studies have…

El New Age se vuele Online
Is internet really a new "electronic temple" where both traditional and New Religious Movements (NRMs) can find and gather their communities? The cryptic rules of ICTs and their capacity of “de-massifyng” and relativizing time and space raises deeper reflections about the human condition as well as the possibility for individuals to reach new levels of transcendence. Several scholars have observed how the internet’s “mysterious” nature and functi…
