BOTERO BERNAL, Andrés; AGUIRRE ROMAN, Javier Orlando  e  ALMEYDA SARMIENTO, Juan David. Neopentecostalism, prosperity theology and neoliberalism. Towards a religious logic to the Homo oeconomicus. Entramado [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.2, e17.  Epub 27-Out-2023. ISSN 1900-3803.  https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.2.9261.

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the relationship theology of prosperity, which is specifically taken in its neo-Pentecostal expression, and neoliberalism as necessary within the current framework of systemic reproduction of capitalism. For this, the writing is divided into three parts: the first, which is responsible for conceptually exposing neo-Pentecostalism; the second, where the theology of prosperity is exposed; and, finally, the one that works on the way in which the neo-Pentecostal religious phenomenon, as an example of faith in prosperity, is linked to neoliberalism. In this way, it can be evidenced how the current turn of capitalism is directed towards religion, so that it can capture it and turn it in its favor, since it allows an alternative to cure, momentarily, the subjective suffering of Homo oeconomicus that inhabits within the system that he himself produced.

Palavras-chave : Capitalism; christianity; subjectivity; contemporary society; prosperity theolog.
