Reviews

Catholicism and the Making of Politics in Central Mozambique, 1940-1986 makes a crucial point in brilliant fashion. Far from being the monolithic entity that scholars often assume it to be, the Catholic Church is in fact a complex array of elements that have considerable autonomy stemming from cultural, historical, national, and sociological factors, an autonomy that can put them at considerable variance. Eric Morier-Genoud illustrates this in the case of Mozambique, from impressive research conducted over many years, on different continents and in a variety of languages. I recommend Catholicism and the Making of Politics whole-heartedly.-Paul Gifford, University of London
