2014ref. U1-JJF0-KZBJ2014 OUP hardcover edition. Some reading wear curve to boards else good condition. As in Europe secular nation building in Latin America challenged the traditional authority of the Roman Catholic Church in the early twentieth century. In response Catholic social and political movements sought to contest state-led secularisation and provide an answer to the 'social question' the complex set of problems associated with urbanisation industrialisation and poverty. As Catholics mobilised against the secular threat they also struggled with each other to define the proper role of the Church in the public sphere. This study utilizes recently opened files at the Vatican pertaining to Mexico's post-revolutionary Church-state conflict known as the Cristero Rebellion 1926-1929. However looking beyond Mexico's exceptional case the work employs a transnational framework enabling a better understanding of the supranational relationship between Latin American Catholic activists and the Vatican. To capture this world historical context Andes compares Mexico to Chile's own experience of religious conflict. Unlike past scholarship which has focused almost exclusively on local conditions Andes seeks to answer how diverse national visions of Catholicism responded to papal attempts to centralize its authority and universalize Church practices worldwide.
