Placing the Cuban Church in comparative analysis with the national churches of Brazil, Chile, Nicaragua, Poland, and Venezuela, I argue that a combination of regime type, institutional church reforms, and the world-historical time period during which the church began its contentious activities have a direct influence on the church's choice of confrontational strategy.	cache/t722h70550r.txt	txt/t722h70550r.txt
