What is Religious Freedom and Evangelization in Latin America: The Challenge of Religious Pluralism (Religion and Human Rights Series) about?

vii, 359 pages ; 24 cm "In his introduction, Paul Sigmund states that the growing religious pluralism in Latin America is one of several reasons why the trend toward democracy that has marked the last two decades may endure. Nevertheless, Sigmund notes that this new pluralism, particularly the growth of Protestantism, has led to tensions that must be resolved. Religious Freedom and Evangelization in Latin America provides an indispensable resource for understanding the range of issues confronting the continent, offering Catholic as well as Protestant perspectives, and trenchant analyses of the situation in different countries, including Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Cuba."--Jacket Includes bibliographical references and index The Catholic Church / Edward L.
