The Argentinean Catholicism of Bergoglio and the papacy of Francis. A first approach from Argentina. The paper analyzes the figure of the new pope Francisco, as a member of Argentine Catholicism to which it belongs and from his career as provincial of the Jesuits and archbishop of the Buenos Aires city. Specifically, it explores the conflict with Jalics and Yorio Jesuit priests, under his authority during the civil-military-religious dictatorship (1976-1983). His past, the deep crisis of Catholicism, the unprecedented resignation of Benedict XVI, the place of the papacy and the Vatican state, the charisma function, the media, global capitalism and time are factors to be considered on its future

Keywords : Francis Pope; Bergoglio Cardinal; Catholicism; Papacy; Argentine.
