In Like Leaven in the Dough: Protestant Social Thought in Latin
America, 1920-1950, Carlos Mondragon offers an introduction to the
ideas of notable Protestant writers in Latin America during the
first half of the twentieth century. Despite their national and
denominational differences, Mondragon argues that Protestant
intellectuals developed a coherent set of ideas about freedom of
religion and thought, economic justice, militarism, and national
identity. This was a period when Protestants comprised a very small
proportion of Latin America's total population; their very
marginality compelled them to think creatively about their identity
and place in Latin American society. Accused of embracing a foreign
faith, these Protestants struggled to define national identities
that had room for religious diversity and liberty of conscience.
Marginalized and persecuted themselves, Latin America's Protestants
articulated a liberating message decades before the appearance of
Catholic Liberation Theology.
