Resumen:
Through the analysis of the journal Cristianismo y Revolución (Buenos Aires, 1966-1971), this paper highlights the conditions that made a link between certain Catholic groups and the revolutionary movements possible during the Sixties in Argentina. The changes in the Christians’ conscience characterized by the attempts the Catholic Church had made during the twentieth century to face Modern times and by a developed concern for structural social problems, were the main streams that led some Catholics towards the Left. The moral concern towards poorer, the success of the Cuban Revolution and the political situation in Argentina and Latin America contributed to create an appropriate framework.
