Abstract

NAVA LE FAVI, Daniela. LOS ROSTROS DEL PODER: IDENTIDADES, JERARQUÍAS Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIALES EN EL CASO DEL CULTO DEL MILAGRO EN SALTA-ARGENTINA. Punto Cero [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.38, pp.33-44. ISSN 1815-0276.

This work is woven in interdisciplinary dialogues that take up, mainly, the views of socio-semiotics, cultural studies and anthropological, communicational and historical approaches in relation to religious processes to look at social representations in the case of devotion to the cult of the Lord and the Virgen del Milagro in the city of Salta-Argentina. To address the theme, focuses on two Catholic groups called "La Hermandad del Milagro" and the "Guardia de Obreras de María", which participate actively in the festival and are configured in faces of power, as its members reproduce identities and images of the world legitimized by the Church. They occupy a hierarchical position in the organization of devotion. The research considers these groups as brotherhoods for the dynamics they acquire, which makes it possible to read coloniality and the various ways in which the church, through worship, sediments, perpetuates and reproduces its power in the local territory.

Keywords : representations; identities; hierarchies; religious cults.
