Abstract	Definition of parish: codification of can. 515 In the current Code, for the definition of parish, the legislator adopts the doctrine of the Second Vatican Council, which presents the parish as a coetus fidelium (cf. SC 42) or communitas (cf. AG 30; CD 30). The work that created the can. 515, from the first drafts to its finalization, points to the terminological and structural variations that occurred throughout the various schemes, resulting in the definition of the Parish and its constitutive elements. Keywords: parish; can. 515; codification process; parish pastor.
