Summary:In the reform of the Curia currently underway, Pope Francis is harnessing the winds that are blowing up from the southern hemisphere, freeing the Primacy from the eurocentricity that has characterised it, especially through the latter half of the last millennium. Within and around this process of reform, substantial changes are under way in how the Petrine ministry is exercised with implications for the make-up and profile of the College of Cardinals, as well as in the relationships between Local Churches and the Bishops' Conferences.
