Omschrijving

Mexican American Religions is a concise introduction to the religious life of Mexican American people in the United States. This accessible volume uses historical narrative to explore the complex religious experiences and practices that have shaped Mexican American life in North America. It addresses the religious impact of U.S. imperial expansion into formerly Mexican territory and examines how religion intertwines with Mexican and Mexican American migration into and within the United States. This book also delves into the particularities and challenges faced by Mexican American Catholics in the United States, the development and spread of Mexican American Protestantism and Pentecostalism, and a growing religious diversity. Topics covered include:

Mesoamerican religions
Iberian religion and colonial evangelization of New Spain
The Colonial era
Religion in the Mexican period
The U.S.-Mexican War and the racialization of Mexican American religion
Mexican migration and the Catholic Church
Mexican American Protestants
Mexican American Evangelical and Charismatic Christianity
