The case studies in this volume examine the activities of
faith-based institutions in a representative sample of African and
Latin American countries, including societies with and without a
dominant religious tradition, and states with different levels and
types of government-provided social services. Among other
questions, the chapters examine the types of social service
activities faith-based organizations engage in; their effect on
civil society and democratic processes; their influence on the
character of local and national communities; and what new pressures
would be brought to bear on state-provided services if these
faith-based organizations ceased to exist.Â
