BAHAMONDES GONZALEZ, Luis; DIESTRE DE LA BARRA, Florencia; MARIN ALARCON, Nelson y RIQUELME MAULEN, Wladimir. Spirituality and Territory: the Emergence of New Religious Markets in Pisco Elqui (IV Region, Chile). rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2017, n.61, pp.69-84. ISSN 0123-885X. https://doi.org/10.7440/res61.2017.06.
The purpose of this article is to analyse the emergence of new religious markets in the locality of Pisco Elqui, IV region of Chile. Using a qualitative methodology with an ethnographic approach, it seeks to understand the goods and services commercialization and the spiritual, mystic, esoteric character process as well as a multiplicity of therapies, spiritual trips and the transmission of ancestral knowledge. Hence the results reveal the transformation of said place in a new space for the commercialism of the sacred; its religious, magic, spiritual and esoteric expressions represent the confluence of local elements and global attractions for the new types of contemporary believers.
