RT Article T1 Algunas propuestas para comprender el aspecto político del pontificado de san Juan Pablo II JF Anuario de historia de la Iglesia VO 31 SP 431 OP 456 A1 Skibiński, Paweł 1973- LA Spanish YR 2022 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1802225366 AB Although the Pope wasn’t a politician, the pontificate of John Paul II had its political aspect. In order to define this dimension of his pontificate four essential elements must be pointed out: a) the papal impact on the politics of the states; b) his participation in the formation of international relations; c) the impact of John Paul II towards the development of a religious freedom; d) the personal religious inspiration of politicians. The Polish Pope had a special influence on the initiation of the process of dismantling the Soviet bloc after 1989.
