Catholics and Politics
The Dynamic Tension Between Faith and Power
Catholic political identity and engagement defy categorization. This title takes up the political and theological significance of this 'integral unity,' the universal scope of Catholic concern that can make for strange political bedfellows, confound predictable voting patterns, and leave the church poised to critique narrowly partisan agendas.
