Sinopsis

One element of the church that Pope Francis was elected to lead in 2013 was an ideology that might be called the 'American' model of Catholicism--the troubling result of efforts by intellectuals like Michael Novak, George Weigel, and Richard John Neuhaus to remake Catholicism into both a culture war colossus and a prop for ascendant capitalism. After laying the groundwork during the 1980s and armed with a selective and manipulative reading of Pope John Paul II?s 1991 encyclical Centesimus Annus, these neoconservative commentators established themselves as authoritative Catholic voices throughout the 1990s, viewing every question through a liberal-conservative ecclesial-political lens. The movement morphed further after the 9/11 terror attacks into a startling amalgamation of theocratic convictions, which led to the troubling theo-populism we see today. The election of the Latin American pope represented a mortal threat to all of this, and a poisonous backlash was inevitable, bringing us to the brink of a true 'American schism.' This is the drama of today?s Catholic Church. In Catholic Discordance: Neoconservatism vs. the Field Hospital Church of Pope Francis, Massimo Borghesi--who masterfully unveiled the pope?s own intellectual development in his The Mind of Pope Francis--analyzes the origins of today?s Catholic neoconservative movement and its clash with the church that Francis understands as a 'field hospital' for a fragmented world.
