    Book description

    Pope Francis and the Future of Catholicism is the first and most in-depth study of the most important teaching document from Pope Francis to date: Evangelii Gaudium. It explores the key components of his vision and agenda for the church - ecclesiological, social and dialogical - drawing together a range of globally and disciplinary diverse voices from leading experts in the field. Contributions explore Francis' distinctive style of papacy as well as the substance of his ecclesial revolution and reforms. Chapters engage with the most pressing challenges for the church in today's world and Francis' debt to key influences from John XXIII and Vatican II to Liberation Theology. The global context and contributions to the dialogue of this papacy are assessed and discussed in-depth. The scope of the book will appeal to those interested in the Catholic Church in both contemporary and historical contexts and to those seeking to understand where the church is going today.

    Reviews

    '… an incisive, insightful collection of essays reflecting and commenting on Pope Francis’s pontificate in light of the Pope’s apostolic exhortation (teaching) Evangelii Gaudium (EG, 2013). Numerous citations from EG help facilitate an in-depth analysis of the document and the shared support for the Pope’s vision of the church and his papacy as set forth in EG.'

    … offers solid scholarly insight into [Evangelii Gaudium] and belongs in university libraries, especially those that support graduate programs.'
