Description

Review Features an array of fascinating topics, with appropriate diversity of historical period, religious affiliation, region, and subject. The editors have gathered an impressive group of scholars whose contributions form a compelling analysis of political action among Latinx religious communities. -- Timothy Matovina, University of Notre Dame Historians of Latinx politics have typically downplayed the importance of religion, and studies of Latinx religion have tended to focus on spirituality, belief, and cultural expression, while ignoring politics. Featuring an extraordinary lineup of scholars―including some of the top influential Latinx historians―Faith and Power is an impressive resource for understanding Latinx religious politics. -- Geraldo Cadava, author of The Hispanic Republican: The Shaping of an American Political Identity, from Nixon to Trump Product Description Illuminates how religion has shaped Latino politics and community building Too often religious politics are considered peripheral to social movements, not central to them. Faith and Power: Latino Religious Politics Since 1945 seeks to correct this misinterpretation, focusing on the postWorld War II era. It shows that the religious politics of this period were central to secular community\-building and resistance efforts. The volume traces the interplay between Latino religions and a variety of pivotal movements, from the farm worker movement to the sanctuary movement, offering breadth and nuance to this history. This illuminates how broader currents involving immigration, refugee policies, de\-industrialization, the rise of the religious left and right, and the Chicana\/o, immigrant, and Puerto Rican civil rights movements helped to give rise to political engagement among Latino religious actors. By addressing both the influence of these larger trends on religious movements and how the religious movements in turn helped to shape larger political currents, the volume offers a compelling look at the twentieth\-century struggle for justice.
