'+Description+': The term came to particular prominence in reference to AGC390, Fr Chávez' letter on Social Communications (With the Courage of Don Bosco on the New Frontiers of Social Communication). The term begins its Salesian life, it seems, in 1989 with a reference from Fr Viganò in the context of Christifideles Laici and 'new evangelisation'. Pope JPII refers to these ''nuove frontiere'' addressing GC23 in 1990, and Fr Viganò continues to refer to it. Fr Vecchi broadens it out in one sense with ''nuove frontiere giovanili'' (new youth frontiers) but in another sense begins to direct it to the Salesian mission. This is where it begins a 'new life' - and GC25 further develops the term in a 'mission' context. Then Fr Chávez begins to look at sectors of the mission - and one in particular, social communications. Finally he chose it as one of the challenges of the Congregation to be discussed at GC26. Here it is closely tied to the Salesian mission. The World Social Communications Day Message 2009 on the "digital continent" has given renewed impetus to the concept of the virtual frontiers this latter reference implies.

'+Context (examples of use)+': Attention to new frontiers involves us in the renewal of our mentality ... (GC26 no. 100)

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)
