Download or read book Religious Conflict in Brazil written by Erika Helgen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of how Brazilian Catholics and Protestants confronted one of the greatest shocks to the Latin American religious system in its 500-year history This innovative study explores the transition in Brazil from a hegemonically Catholic society to a religiously pluralistic society. With sensitivity, Erika Helgen shows that the rise of religious pluralism was fraught with conflict and violence, as Catholic bishops, priests, and friars organized intense campaigns against Protestantism. These episodes of religious violence were not isolated outbursts of reactionary rage, but rather formed part of a longer process through which religious groups articulated their vision for Brazil’s national future.

Download or read book Religious Freedom and Evangelization in Latin America written by Paul E. Sigmund and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his introduction, Paul Sigmund states that the growing religious pluralism in Latin America is one of several reasons why the trend toward democracy that has marked the last two decades may endure. Nevertheless, Sigmund notes that this new pluralism, particularly the growth of Protestantism, has led to tensions that must be resolved. Religious Freedom and Evangelization in Latin America provides an indispensable resource for understanding the range of issues confronting the continent, offering Catholic as well as Protestant perspectives, and trenchant analyses of the situation in different countries, including Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Cuba.
Download or read book Conflict and Competition written by Edward L. Cleary and published by Lynne Rienner Pub. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes in Latin America have created a new political game with new rules, argue the authors, and the Catholic Church - the voice of the voiceless in the 1980s - will find itself increasingly constrained in its political activity in the 1990s. The church will have to respond to limits placed on it by the Vatican and by strained human and financial resources. It also faces competition from a massive surge of evangelical Protestantism. The authors address this new situation, looking in depth at Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Cuba, Guatemala, Nicaragua and Panama.

Download or read book Popular Voices in Latin American Catholicism written by Daniel H. Levine and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout Latin America, observers and activists have found in religion a promise of deep and long-lasting democratization. But for religion to change culture and politics, religion itself must change. Such change is not only a matter of doctrine, ritual, or institutional arrangements but also arises out of the needs, values, and ideas of average believers. Combining rich interviews and community studies in Venezuela and Colombia with analysis of broad ideological and institutional transformations, Daniel Levine examines how religious and cultural change begins and what gives it substance and lasting impact. The author focuses on the creation of self-confident popular groups among hitherto isolated and dispirited individuals. Once silent voices come to light as peasants and urban barrio dwellers reflect on their upbringing and community, on poverty and opportunity, on faith, prayer, and the Bible, and on institutions like state, school, and church. Levine also interviews priests, sisters, and pastoral agents and explains how their efforts shape the links between popular groups and the larger society. The result is a clear understanding of how relations among social and cultural levels are maintained and transformed, how programs are implemented, why they succeed or fail, and how change appears both to elites and to ordinary people.
