Abstract

383
This study deals with the private autonomy considered as a general principle of law, and its reception in canon law. As a consequence, the principal manifestations of private autonomy in canon law are considered based on the exercise of some rights and obligations of Christ's faithful; in particular, the right to association and to hold meetings, the obligation and right to apostolate,and its institutional complement: the right to promote and sustain such apostolic initiatives which are proper to all of Christ's faithful. The new juridical statute of Christ's faithful has become essential that the legislator has provided the institutional means so that these initiatives can be carried out. That's how a new type of juridical persons has emerged: what the Code calls "private juridical persons". Through them, Christ's faithful can foster associations and autonomous foundations with its free initiative, the juridical rules of which are regulated by the private autonomy of Christ's faithful, and gives place to an authentic private canonical right.
