The Constitution of Sacred Liturgy is widely regarded as the most
significant among the sixteen documents produced by the Second
Vatican Council. The constitution has radically redefined the
methods and meanings of Catholic worship, including a shift from
rote enactment of rituals, to the laity as a spiritual community.
Transforming Catholicism offers the first social scientific
analysis of these liturgical changes in worship and their
implementations in local situations. Guided by a consistent theory
of policy implementation, Michael J. McCallion and David R. Maines
examine the growing emphasis placed on biblical interpretations of
sacred meanings, interpretative homilies, and the production of
mass in local languages. This book incorporates first-hand
empirical data in studying the influence of professional liturgists
on parish worship practices and the subsequent symbolic
interactionist theories. Transforming Catholicism is a
sophisticated and engaging read that will captivate seminary
professors and those interested in policy analysis.
