Review:
John Crowley- Buck is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Theology at Loyola University Chicago in Chicago, Illinois.
Democracy, Culture and Catholicism is a unique and very illuminating book studying the restraints and resources of Catholicism for democracy. It links Catholic social thought on democracy with several key case studies of countries which underwent a transition from dictatorship to democracy and how the social location of the church aided or not that crucial transition. A must read for people concerned with comparative study of Catholicism and Catholic social thought. (―John A. Coleman S.J. Associate Pastor, Saint Ignatius Church, San Francisco)
“. . . [A] dynamic conversation regarding the interpretation and application of Catholic social teaching in diverse Lithuanian, Indonesian, Peruvian, and U.S. American perspectives. A critical resource for expanding knowledge and inquiry into diverse expressions of Catholicism and globalization.” (―Alex Mikulich Jesuit Social Research Institute, Loyola University, New Orleans)
