By: LALANDER, Rickard.
Material type: materialTypeLabelArticlePublisher: Stockholm : Institute of Latin Amercian Studies, Stockholm University, 2012Subject(s): Política Social | Religião | EtniaOnline resources: Acesso Iberoamericana: nordic journal of latin american and caribbean studies 42, 1-2, p. 135-158Abstract: This study analyses the Ecuadorian Evangelical Indigenous movement with a particular focus on the tensions between ethnicity and religion in political mobilization processes un the Chimborazo province. Chimborazo has been a traditional stronghold both of the Catholic Church and later of Evangelical churches, which makes the province exceptional and has triggered the formation of different political movements. The focus is placed on the social movement Ecuadorian Federation of Evangelical Indians (FEINE) and its political-electoral movement Amauta Jatari, as well as their complex relationships to the broader Indigenous movement. As for the theoretical-methodological approach, the article leans on ideas on Intersectionality - originally emerging from women's studies - on relationship between socio-cultural identities and categories, which will be integrated into a sociological-political scientific analytical framework. This well as better comprehending the complex mixture of identities that influence collective and individual behavior in society. Is there a certain hierarchic order between ethnic and religious identification among ethnically defined peoples with specific religious beliefs? Is this imaginable hierarchy persistent, or does it change according to differing social and political contexts?
