Hot Off the Press: Our Latest Publications

First 3 volumes in CWCIT book series, Studies in World Catholicism
Did you know that CWCIT publishes a book series? Titled Studies in World Catholicism, it’s published through the Cascade Books imprint of Wipf and Stock Publishing. Take a look at our first three volumes, which bring together the work presented by scholars from around the globe during some of our past World Catholicism Week conferences:

Vol. 3, Scattered & Gathered

Scattered and Gathered: Catholics in Diaspora
Vol. 3 (September 2017)

“…a treasure trove of theological and ethical resources for reimagining and understanding the global phenomenon of migration and diaspora for faith, community, and devotion in the twenty-first century.”

A. E. Orobator, SJ, president of Jesuit Superiors of Africa & Madagascar


Vol. 2, New World Pope

New World Pope: Pope Francis and the Future of the Church
Vol. 2 (June 2017)

"…distinguished by the range of perspectives among its authors, from journalist to theologian, Jewish rabbi to Catholic cardinal, biblical to Ignatian reflection.”

Timothy Matovina, chair of Department of Theology, University of Notre Dame


Vol. 1, Beyond the Borders of Baptism

Beyond the Borders of Baptism: Catholicity, Allegiances, and Lived Identities
Vol. 1 (September 2016)

“…as these eminent theologians make clear, the legacy of Catholicism's resistance to nationalism is not unmixed…these ambitious essays…will reshape your view of what the church is and could be."

Jason Byasee, Butler Chair in Homiletics, Vancouver School of Theology

In addition to the Studies in World Catholicism series, we also occasionally have works published elsewhere and are happy to share these two recent examples:
