The spatial diffusion of the devotion to Toribio Romo has intensified due to the migration of Mexicans to the United States. It will be discussed how, from the experience of mobility of believing migrants, the devotion to the saint extends to new territories and believers across different geographical scales, influenced by historical and socio-cultural contexts, which are reinforced and establish connections with their places of origin through religious practices and traditions through the image of Toribio Romo. To achieve this purpose, a bibliographical review of the spatial diffusion is presented to explain the expansion of the devotion. Additionally, the expansion of the devotion between Mexico and the United States will be mapped through fieldwork conducted under the methodology of multi-sited ethnography.

“…D’Agostino's provoking arguments dovetailed with the ascendancy of the “transnational turn” in religious history to inspire a veritable reorientation of scholarship on US Catholicism away from domestic debates and towards the transnational itineraries of Catholic ideas and figures (Cummings, 2018; McGreevy, 2016; Young, 2015). Yet, D’Agostino's call to “bring Rome back” into the picture of the American Catholic past was not necessarily a call to relativize the question of Catholicism's relationship with the American nation‐state.…”

Rome, Catholicism, and the nation‐state in America: Re‐centering a debate?

The relationship between Catholicism and the nation‐state in America has been fraught with tension on multiple levels. This review will distinguish two main analytical perspectives. One focuses on the problem of ethnicity and race formation. The Catholic Church in America has historically been both ethnically fragmented and functioning as a whole non‐WASP “other.” Therefore, its relationship with the nation‐state can be described in terms of inclusion in/exclusion from the dominant group and as largely dependent on how the ethnic and racial (self‐)definition of both Church and country changed over time. A second perspective highlights the ideological friction between the Catholic and the American intellectual and political traditions. The question of Catholic belonging to the American nation‐state could be (and was) framed in terms of intellectual assent and political loyalty to a core set of propositions and values ultimately enshrined in the US Constitution. While the two strands of tension were often conflated in the same inclusionary/exclusionary historical episodes and dynamics, they remain distinguishable both analytically and historiographically. After reviewing scholarship from both perspectives, as well as the most recent developments in each, I will suggest that greater appreciation for the Catholic Church as a global institution (and for the potential of its rich archival records in Rome) may be a most promising, if somewhat counterintuitive, strategy to shed new light on the interplay of Catholicism and the nation‐state in America.
