This book is based on the theology and ecclesiology of Vatican II, and the revised ecclesial legislation as expressed in the 1983 Code of Canon Law. The model of Church, the People of God, living in communio, is recognized as a conciliar phenomenon expressing a novus habitus mentis of the Council. While community has always been an integral part of the life of the Church, this major concept, emerging from the Council as a way forward with scope for evolution and growth, gave rise to a multiplicity of new ecclesial communities and associations. With this in mind this book considers if Canon Law, in compliance with the call of Vatican II to novus habitus mentis, is relevant to, supportive of, and facilitates the empowerment of communio with particular application to new communities and associations in the Church in fostering their growth, development and recognition, with specific emphasis on the traditional concern of the Church for those marginalized in modern society. .
