Description
Summary:The analysis of discourses by paying a special attention to the notion of environmental change makes it possible to consider a potential reorganization of religious practices among the Yánesha. The discussion puts into perspective some historical references dealing with the political-religious structure of this group in the last past century, and recent ethnographic information collected in two communities: one Evangelical and another Adventist. Thus, the existence of potential mechanisms of incorporation of evangelical preaching dealing with an “ecological conversion” will be considered in order to understand the variability of several narrative forms mentioning various of the relationships types that the living have between them. Given this background, the hypothesis of a possible process of shamanization of the new religious practices adopted by the Yánesha is investigated. Possible process of chamanization of the new religious practices adopted by the Yánesha is investigated.
