%0 Journal Article %T La concepci車n de la pena en el magisterio actual The conception of punishment in the current Magisterium %A Gustavo Irarazabal %J Veritas : Revista de Filosof赤a y Teolog赤a %D 2012 %I Pontificio Seminario Mayor San Rafael Valpara赤so %X La teolog赤a cat車lica de la pena, que durante siglos se mantuvo pr芍cticamente inalterada, ha experimentado en los 迆ltimos 20 a os una profunda transformaci車n, impulsada por la idea conciliar de la dignidad de la persona humana, una m芍s cabal comprensi車n del concepto b赤blico de justicia divina y una conciencia m芍s aguda de las deficiencias e injusticias del sistema penal, en particular, de la pena carcelaria. El presente art赤culo, a trav谷s del estudio de diversos documentos magisteriales relevantes para este tema, ilustra la nueva perspectiva de la justicia reconciliadora, que busca dar a la sanci車n retributiva un sentido aut谷nticamente medicinal, convirti谷ndola en un recorrido potencialmente dotado de sentido para el delincuente, conducente a su rehabilitaci車n y su reinserci車n en la comunidad. The Catholic Theology of punishment, which for centuries had remained unaltered, has undergone during the last 20 years a deep transformation, due to the conciliar idea of the dignity of the human person, a better understanding of the biblical concept of divine justice, and a new awareness of the deficiencies of the criminal justice system, especially as regards prison. This article, through the analysis of different magisterial documents, illustrates the new perspective of reconciliative justice, which seeks to give retributive sanctions an authentic medicinal orientation, as a potentially meaningful process for their subjects, in order to enable their rehabilitation and reintegration in the community. %K Pena %K retribuci車n %K justicia divina %K justicia reconciliadora %K prisi車n %K Punishment %K retribution %K divine justice %K reconciliative justice %K prison %U http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0718-92732012000200009
