Unlike most recent studies of the Catholic Church in Latin America,
Philip Williams' book sets out ot analyse the Church in two very
dissimilar political contexts - Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Despite
the obvious differences, Williams argues that in both cases the
Church has responded to social change in a remarkably similar
fashion. The efforts of progressive clergy to promote change in
both countries has been largely blocked in both hierarchs, fearful
that such change will threaten the Church's influence in society.
Based on extensive first-hand research, this book is a welcome
contribution to the current debate over Central America.
