Abstract
The forties of the Twentieth Century were years of great novelties in Opus Dei. A few tens of members united without an ecclesiastical approval became two thousand associates at the end of the decade with a final approval for Opus Dei by the Holy See as a secular institute. Josemaría Escrivá adapted the governance to the different canonical situations of the Work, appointed the men and women of Opus Dei for the central and local councils, and explained the main characteristics of the governance in Opus Dei.
