This congress aims to explore different forms of interaction and communication between representatives of the Padroados and the Congregation of Propaganda Fide in terms of antagonism, convergence and cooperation, starting from the creation of the dicastery in the seventeenth century to the end of the patronage system in the twentieth century, in territories under the control of the Iberian Padroados (America, Africa and Asia) and the Holy See.
