Abstract

The paper reflects on the crisis of the parish system in Europe and in the secularized West in general, starting from a summary geographical overview. It shows, in each case, the different responses that have been given to this situation precipitated by the strong secularization and suggests some theological and pastoral keys to face these challenges in an integral and process-oriented manner
