Journal of Salesian Studies 2021 Volume XIX Number 2 Wim Collin

The Journal of Salesian studies is an academic publication covering topics primarily related to the Salesian tradition of Saint John Bosco, including its connection to the wider Salesian tradition relating to Saint Francis de Sales. To progress the Salesian mission and properly understand and discern the call of Salesian discipleship, many articles take on a historical perspective and delve into the origins of the Salesian charism, spirit, educational style, and its historical application through time. These historically-based articles are designed to encourage the reader's critical reflection and draw connections to its current application. However, many articles make more of an immediate practical application.
