Abstract (English): The book "The Witness: Half a Century of a Latin American in the Rome of the Popes" narrates the journey of Guzmán Carriquiry Lecour, a Uruguayan layman who held important positions in the Vatican during five pontificates. The text highlights his role in promoting the laity within the Church and in integrating the Latin American Church into the universal ecumene, a path that culminated with the pontificate of Pope Francis, the first Latin American pontiff. Additionally, Carriquiry reflects on ecclesial movements, the reform of the Curia, and the challenges of Catholicism in Latin America in the face of evangelical growth. The book offers a close and critical view of the life and administration of the Church in Rome from a Latin American perspective. [Extracted from the article]
