Rightful autonomy of religious institutes

Fr.Koluthara discuses rightful autonomy as it is treated in the Latin code and in the Eastern canonical legislation. This book will be very useful both to religious institutes who are drawing up their constitutions and to diocesan authorities (Prof.Dr. CLARENCE GALLAGHER, SJ). Using a juridical and analytical methodology-but at the same time not ignoring any document of historical, canonical, concilliar and post concilliar importance- the author subjected to rigorous analysis and careful evaluation all the prescriptions pertaining to autonomy in both codes, first treating each one separately and then comparing them.(Prof.Dr.DOMINGO J.ANDRES GUTIERREZ, CMF). The analytical work of Fr.Koluthara proceeds in a very accurate way; the comparison between CCEO and CIC leads to new discoveries. The author affirms and proves all these in his work, especially in the comparative section, where he synthezises and arranges the elements he has collected. (Archbisop Emeritus MARCO BROGI, OFM).
