    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    From the Fascist regimes of inter-war Europe to the Christian Democracies of the post-war era, Catholicism has been a major political force in twentieth-century Europe. In this pioneering and innovative volume, a team of expert historians provide the first authoritative study of this neglected subject. Tackling each major European country in turn, they provide an unusual viewpoint on the political and social development of Europe during this century.

    Long description:

    In the twentieth century, Catholics have been enthusiastic supporters of the dictatorships of Franco and Salazar, victims of Nazism in Germany, and advocates of Christian Democracy in post-war Europe. What unites these experiences? Focusing on the years between the end of the First World War and the Second Vatican Council, a group of expert historians tackle this issue on a country-by-country basis, investigating how far Catholicism represented not only a religious but also a major political and social force in European politics. The issues covered include Christian Democracy, the best-known expression of Catholic political activity, as well as various lesser-known forms such as Catholic Action, corporatism, Catholic trade unions and other lay movements. In this authoritative and stimulating book, the contributors clearly demonstrate that political Catholicism has been unduly neglected by historians of twentieth-century Europe. This pioneering volume will be of value to scholars, students, and all those interested in understanding the role of Catholicism in this century.

    ... particularly instructive concerning the corporatist concepts of political Catholicism as well as its 'enthusiastic support' for authoritarian regimes.
