Recenzii
a very interesting study of a Catholic organisation (FOCUS), well developed and written.
Amid deep social and scholarly interest in the "nones" and the "spiritual but not religious," Katherine Dugan's compelling ethnography, Millennial Missionaries: How a Group of Young Catholics Are Trying to Make Catholicism Cool, reminds readers of the continued resonance of denominational differences for some young Catholics... Millennial Missionaries, deepens our understanding of contemporary American Catholicism, youth and religion, and American religion more broadly. I highly recommend it.
Millennial Missionaries is an important first book by a promising scholar. It should be essential reading for insight into millennial religiosity and for anyone involved in youth ministry, catechetics, or religious education...As a detailed and insightful ethnographic contribution, Dugan's study is also a significant contribution that extends the contemporary understanding of young adult Catholic culture beyond quantitative data on which much of the social science research on this age cohort has been based.
A rich ethnographic study... This book carries great value for any reader interested in the landscape of American religiosity and generational shifts in Catholic identity.
Dugan excels in letting her subjects speak for themselves about their religious experiences and genuine beliefs ... While its primary audience may be scholars of Catholicism in the United States, Millennial Missionaries is a well-executed piece of ethnography that may be of interest to scholars of religion among young Americans and of the postevangelical American religious landscape.
Katherine Dugan fills out the picture considerably, showing how this group has fused evangelical practices and fervor with orthodox Catholicism
