This is an analysis of the social and political implications of Protestantism. It asserts that the most important distinction is between churches that are of the poor and those that are still instituted from outside the culture or run by an intellectual or economic elite.
Although many consider Central America a thoroughly Catholic region, Protestant organizations based in the United States began in the 1970s to send missionaries to Latin America in a concerted effort to convert Catholics to Protestantism. In this penetrating analysis of the social and political implications of Protestantism, focusing particularly on the fast-growing Pentecostal groups, Hallum provides a thorough overview of this complex phenomenon.
