Resumen
VIOTTI, Nicolás. Emotion and the New Spiritualities. Towards a Relational and Situated View of Affects. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2017, n.28, pp.175-191. ISSN 1900-5407. https://doi.org/10.7440/antipoda28.2017.08.
Religiosities with a strong "emotional" component had strong visibility in Argentina over the past decades. This paper analyses the crying in groups linked to the New Age spirituality and revivalist Catholicism in the broader context of the so-called "new spiritualities". It also aims to reflect on the affinities between sacred and emotionality as a research focus in the social sciences and what the relational approach has to say about the broader field of affect studies in the analysis of religiosity. Especially when the most widespread analysis understand "emotionalism" as a contemporary crisis of the "social" or as a locus of "subjective experience". In short, the article intend to emphasize how considering native theories about the causes of emotion, as a relational and situated process that considers human and non-human agents, ideas of cause and efficacy, could be a complementary strategy to analyse emotions.
