| Sumario: | The Second Vatican Council had major consequences for female religious congregations within the Church and it was key in deepening processes that were already underway. Specifically, for some time there had already been discussions regarding the recipients of their religious labor, in many of these congregations, this was reflected in their choice of the poor as subjects of their actions. This work will present a balance and historiographical overview about academic studies of Argentinian female congregations in the aftermath of the Council. Both studies that intend to paint a broad picture of the actions of several dioceses and those that focus on specific cases will be taken into account. Additionally, there will be a series of questions and propositions for the future to fill the current historiographical vacuum as regards female congregations of the Rosario Archdiocese, these will be related to the conditions of the Third World and will keep a gender perspective in mind. |
