Resumen
PANOTTO, Nicolás. Pentecostalism and the Construction of Socio-Political Identities. Desafíos [online]. 2014, vol.26, n.2, pp.73-96. ISSN 0124-4035. https://doi.org/10.12804/desafios26.02.2014.03.
This article introduces the notion of identity from various current approaches -such as poststructuralist and postcolonial theories within the area of philosophy as well as anthropology- and how identity, taking into account the plurality of contemporary social subjects such as religious communities, enables the expansion of the study of political dynamics. As a specific case study, a neopentecostal community in Buenos Aires, Centro Cristiano Nueva Vida (CNVC) is selected. The article analyzes how this church builds its socio-political identity in light of its religious specificity: theological discourses, symbolic processes, rituals, and institutional methods.
