In 1900 the Catholic Church stood staunchly against human rights, religious freedom, and the secular state disastrous concepts unleashed by the French Revolution. Yet by the 1960s its position was reversed. How did the world's largest religious organization become modern? James Chappel finds answers in the shattering experiences of the 1930s.
