A richly cinematic and compelling look at priest-politicians in Brazil and their religious and secular entanglements. The first work by an anthropologist to explore the unique phenomenon of the mayor-priest, this book offers an essential new angle on emerging debates about secularity as the condition of separation of the religious from the political.
