Protection at the Margins
How the Catholic Church Shielded Communities from Populist Violence in the Philippine Drug War'In this terrific and humane book, Buckley and Brooke demonstrate how committed religious actors operating through locally effective institutions can protect people from state violence. Through careful theorization and impressive multi-pronged field research, the authors identify a set of mechanisms for how meso-level actors mitigate civilian abuse. The book has profound implications not only for the study of large-scale political violence outside armed conflict, but also for the study of civil society and the power of principled action in the face of dangerous politics.'
