Summary |
Adoption
Various Eastern Churches had, with the approval of the papacy, adopted texts incorporating their own right.
In 1929 , Pius IX creates a commission of cardinals for the codification of law as a whole that these churches are subject, and entrusts the presidency to Cardinal Pietro Gasparri , who had already completed the Code of Canon Law of 1917.
In 1948 , the Committee led to a first draft, parts of which were enacted between 1947 and 1954. However, the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council stops work because of doctrinal and legal reforms that presupposes.
Paul VI decided to establish a commission to revise the code East. In 1989 , the latter proposes to John Paul II 's final draft.
The code was promulgated on 18 October 1990 by the Apostolic Constitution Sacri canones. It entered into force on 1 October 1991.
A Congress on the Code of Canon Law East was organized in the Vatican from 8 to 9 October 2010, to mark the 20th anniversary of its promulgation. On October 9, 2010, Benedict XVI received in audience participants Map The 1546 includes CCOE guns. It is not divided into books, but only 30 stocks, material and seems more fragmented than in the Latin code. Beyond the large differences in the plan, the Code of Canon Law of 1983 and the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches of 1990 come together on many provisions of law. The canon of the West readily refer to CCEO, insofar as some of his guns provide useful information or hints to better understand the legislative will. For example, for specialists, canon 776 2 CCEO provides a useful clarification in relation to its Latin equivalent (c. 1055): "By Christ's institution of marriage ...". Moreover, the CCEO fully recognizes the power of "the Roman Pontiff" (Pope's legal name): he promulgated the Code, it is he who "has the supreme, full, immediate and universal" (can. 43) in the Church alone can build or modify a patriarchy or a major archiepiscopal Church and so on. Can. 45 also states: "By virtue of his office, the Roman Pontiff not only has power over the whole Church, but he also gets on all dioceses and groups of the primacy of ordinary power, by which is both strengthened and guaranteed the proper, ordinary and immediate, that the bishops have the diocese entrusted to their care. " But he acts in communion with other bishops, that is to say in a sense of working together and not rivalry: " 2" In the exercise of his office as supreme Pastor of the Church as a whole, the Roman Pontiff is always in communion with all other bishops and with the whole Church, he nevertheless has the right to determine, according to the needs of the Church, how personal or college to hold office. 3 against a sentence or a decree of the Roman Pontiff, there is no appeal or recourse. " This helps explain why we should not oppose "Oriental" to "Roman" means the Eastern Catholics are "Roman Catholic" in its own right. However, the Oriental canon law includes many features. Each affect only the vocabulary: the church where Latin uses the words of Bishop and Episcopal Vicar , Eastern Churches speak Exarch and syncellus. In the traditional hierarchy of the Catholic Church which includes the ecclesiastical provinces and dioceses (here respectively Metropolitan Church and Eparchy), the CCOE attaches importance to the seats that are at the head of a Church sui iuris, and are two types: The Eastern Churches not requiring celibacy of priests , but only bishops, several guns differ on this point between the Latin and Oriental. However, once ordained , priests can not marry or remarry. In criminal cases, the Eastern Churches are experiencing excommunication minor, who does that to receive the Eucharist.
