This book focuses on the ethnographic study of Catholicism and media. Chapters demonstrate how people engage with the Catholic media-scape, and analyse the social, cultural, and political processes that underlie Catholic media and mediatization.

Case studies examine Catholic practices in North America, Western and Eastern Europe, Latin America, South-East Asia, and Africa, providing a truly comparative, de-centred representation of global Catholicism.

Illustrating the vibrancy and heterogeneity of Catholicism world-wide, the book also examines how media work to sustain larger global Catholic imaginaries.

Eric Hoenes del Pinal is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA. Marc Loustau is Visiting Lecturer in Religious Studies at the College of the Holy Cross, USA. Kristin Norget is Associate Professor of Anthropology at McGill University, Canada.
