Abstract

On occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation and after fifty years of the international Catholic-Lutheran Dialogue, the author reflects the path taken in Latin America in the last decades. For this, after a presentation of the reality of both partners, especially the Latin American Lutheranism, he reviews the experience of the bilateral dialogue in Brazil and, later, in Argentina. In a diachronic presentation, the peculiarities and contributions of each one of these two experiences are recorded. In conclusion, some clues are pointed, taking into account the way already made and the challenges presented today by the Latin American context.
