Las circunscripciones eclesiásticas personales. El caso de los ordinariatos personales para fieles provenientes del anglicanismo.

- Abstract
The article opens with an account of the principles of territoriality and personality in the organization of the Church, in light of the most recent contributions from ecclesiologists and canon lawyers. Thereafter, the nature and significance of cumulative ecclesiastical jurisdiction are addressed: in particular, the difference between circumscriptions added to those already existing (where the local Ordinary has cumulative jurisdiction because the faithful of such circumscriptions are also faithful of the local diocese) and circumscriptions with exclusive jurisdiction. In this context, the current typology of personal circumscriptions is analyzed: personal prelatures, military ordinariates, ritual ordinariates, and the specific case of the Apostolic Administration of Campos. The article concludes with a series of reflections on the nature and defining features of the personal ordinariates recently envisioned for faithful coming from the Anglican Churches.
