- Abstract
After the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI in February 2013, his so called "Address at the Concert Hall in Freiburg" during his last visit to Germany in September 2011, appears under a new perspective, like a legacy of the Pontiff to the issues of Church and power, Church and society. The preaching of his successor, Pope Francis, also touches frequently, and in a conspicuous manner, on the issue of the place of the Church and her members in the world. Where the Pope Emeritus spoke about "detachment from worldliness" and "New Evangelization," Pope Francis speaks of a "Poor Church" and the necessity to go to the outskirts. This contribution investigates the roots of this thinking in Joseph Ratzinger's theology and its largely overlooked consequences for the Church.
