Media Reviews
«Any student or scholar of twentieth-century German Catholicism will have to read this book. It is part of a new wave of scholarship in the field that effectively disproves the social scientists’ insistence that religion no longer played a social or political role in the twentieth century. In addition, Jeremy Stephen Roethler’s work is a model of clarity and insight that ties his work on Catholic fraternities to larger questions of culture, religion, and politics. He ties the specifics of his archival study to important intellectual trends. Roethler’s work is especially important because it creates a foundation of understanding for the Catholic genesis of Germany’s postwar Christian Democratic leaders.»
(Martin Menke, Professor of History, Rivier University, Nashua, New Hampshire)
