Many Catholic priests, nuns, and brothers in the United States take a strong interest in US policies that affect their 'brothers and sisters' abroad. Based on years of fieldwork and on-the-ground interviews, this title details the transnational bonds that drive the political activities of these Catholic orders.

Through the use of three case studies - Poland, Croatia, and the Slovak Republic - this work argues that the Catholic Church remains deeply involved in the central politics of this region over both governmental structure and public policy.
