    Defensa de la visión del mundo y motivos identitarios ante la saliencia de mortalidad y la religión en Lima
    (Pontifical Xavierian University, 2021-07-21)
    Justificación. La Teoría del Manejo del Terror (TMT) propone que la saliencia de mortalidad (SM) produce estados de ansiedad que las personas afrontan con la Defensa de la Visión del Mundo (DVM) y la adhesión a Motivos Identitarios (MI). Objetivo. Analizar el efecto de la SM en la DVM y los MI en católicos y ateos de Lima (Perú). Método. Se desarrolló un diseño cuasiexperimental, intersujetos, 2 x 2 [Condición: Experimental vs. Control X Grupo de Creencia: Católicos (n = 30) vs. Ateos (n = 32)]. Los participantes de la condición experimental fueron expuestos a la SM y los de la condición control no, respondiendo posteriormente a cuestionarios de DVM y MI. Resultados. No existen diferencias en la DVM y los MI por condición, ni por la interacción entre condición y grupo de creencia. Sin embargo, analizando las diferencias por grupo de creencia, los ateos muestran mayor DVM y los católicos mayores niveles en los MI de Pertenencia y Continuidad. Discusión. Los hallazgos sobre los efectos de la SM en las variables dependientes son consistentes con resultados en contextos no anglosajones. Adicionalmente, las diferencias entre grupos de creencia se discuten desde un marco de relaciones intergrupales en el contexto peruano.

    Macabalaca: New evidence of the Kotosh religious tradition in the Huarmey Valley, Peru
    (Cambridge University Press, 2022-12-23)
    Rescue excavations at the site of Macabalaca (PV35-72) in the Huarmey Valley, Peru, identified a rectangular structure with niches on its walls and a floor with a central hearth. We present results of those excavations, emphasizing the stratigraphic components and relative chronology. We conclude that the structure belongs to the Kotosh Religious Tradition (KRT) and can be preliminarily placed in the Late Archaic (2800-1800 BC) or Early Formative period (1800-1200 BC).

    God on the guillotine: The paradigm shift effected by Kant in the philosophical conception of religion
    (Universidad Compultense Madrid, 2024-01-01)
    Trying to emulate the ironic pen of Heinrich Heine, I use his legendary comparison between the figures of Kant and Robespierre to give title to my paper, in which I expose the decisive paradigm shift that Kant carries out in the philosophical tradition with respect to the conception of the problem of the existence of God. In a first moment, I refer to the reasons that lead Kant, in the Critique of Pure Reason, to dislodge the problem of the “existence” of God from the realm of theoretical reason. In a second moment, I address the displacement of this question to the realm of the Critique of Practical Reason, emphasizing how difficult and paradoxical such a thesis seems to be. Finally, by way of conclusion, I try to formulate a thesis of greater depth that serves as support, in Kant, to the two previous ones, namely, the primacy of philosophy over any other science or discipline, including theology, which can be illustrated in a special way with the case of the censorship of which he was a victim and which led him to the publication of The Conflict of the Faculties.

    La “denuncia espontánea” de Santiago de Urquizu, lector de libros prohibidos en Lima, Perú (1782)
    (National University of Colombia at Medellín, 2024-01-01)
    en la dinámica judicial del Tribunal de la Inquisición de Lima, las “denuncias espontáneas” fueron numerosas, pero de ellas solo ha sobrevivido la realizada en 1782 por Santiago de Urquizu, un miembro de la élite limeña. Las denuncias eran esenciales para que el aparato inquisitorial pudiese funcionar. De allí, la necesidad de alentarlas. La denuncia espontánea podía estar motivada por escrúpulos personales o por la intervención de un tercero, usualmente un miembro del clero. La denuncia espontánea de Urquizu es un documento de excepcional interés por varias razones. En primer lugar, permite conocer los efectos que podía producir la lectura de libros prohibidos en un lector culto de los sectores sociales privilegiados. En segundo lugar, informa de las redes de sociabilización que se creaban en torno al préstamo y lectura de libros. Y, en tercer lugar, ilustra la difusión de la literatura francesa de la Ilustración en la capital del virreinato peruano.

    Teenage Pregnancy in Tambogrande, Peru: Causes, Consequences and Cycles of Violence and Disadvantage
    (Taylor & Francis, 2023-04-13)
    Teenage pregnancy carries adverse consequences for health and well-being. In this article, we investigate the perceived causes, consequences and cycles of violence and disadvantage associated with teenage pregnancy in Tambogrande, Peru using an applied anthropological approach. Data were drawn from a larger project investigating the relationship between water insecurity and gender-based violence in Indonesia and Peru. The analysis presented here is derived from 49 semi-structured interviews and 5 focus groups with local community members and stakeholders in Peru. Study participants highlighted two main factors contributing to teenage pregnancy in Tambogrande: machismo and religious deterrents to contraceptive use. Participants described how these factors overlapped, resulting in gendered power imbalances that increased the risk of violence, decreased educational opportunities, and reduced the economic independence of women. However, study participants stated that educational interventions targeting machismo could reduce teenage pregnancy and break the associated cycle of disadvantage. Future research will further investigate local social and gender norms to inform the design of a rights-based educational intervention, targeting upstream factors associated with teenage pregnancy in this area.

    “Dios te diría ‘Yo no te hice esclava’”: percepciones del rol de la mujer en una iglesia cristiana de Lima
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-22)
    This article analyzes gender perceptions among women in the Agua Viva, Christian church, in Metropolitan Lima and Callao (Peru), based on Francois Dubet’ sociology of experience. The research uses a qualitative approach through interviews with seven members of the Church. The findings show convergences between women’s religious beliefs and their perceptions of gender roles in the family, education, work, and community participation. Although there is consensus among those interviewed about the importance of female participation in public life, there are also tensions between their experiences and views on gender roles in the private sphere, especially around marriage and motherhood. Women justify and interpret their perceptions based, among other elements, on their religious principles, expressing conservative beliefs and others adopting more progressive perspectives. The study highlights the diversity of interpretations and attitudes among participants, challenging the stereotype of extreme conservatism in evangelical churches and revealing nuances in the perspectives of women within these religious communities.

    Neoliberal Order, Culture, Religion and Politics in the Rise of the Extreme Right in Twenty-First-Century Peru
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2025-01-01)
    Since the last two decades, Peru has been the scene of the radicalization of some of its political right-wingers, as well as the emergence of new and even more radical ones. All of them fit within the universe of the so-called extreme right, ultra-right or radical right. Their discourses are extremely conservative, nationalist, violent, racist and homophobic, with a Christian religious background of fundamentalist and dogmatic content, among other features. This is part of the history of the right wing in Peru, but linked to contemporary national and global political and socio-cultural processes. This social and political phenomenon seems to involve, among others, three fundamental factors that this paper explores from a historical and descriptive perspective. First, a historical tradition of political and ideological orientation of the tractional right, from which the extreme right inherits some distinctive features. Secondly, the profound and irreversible structural transformation of Peru due to the constitution of the neoliberal State during the successive regimes of Alberto Fujimori (1990–2000); furthermore, due to the strengthening of the economic and political elites that made the democratic system precarious, repressed political debate and gave way to the process of political capture of the State. Thirdly, the cultural and religious factor, predominant in a country that historically built its social differences based on criteria of exclusion and religious legitimization of the political order. The discourse of the extreme right reproduces part of these collective representations and is strongly impregnated with fundamentalist Catholic and evangelical Christian values. Due to the relative “novelty” of this phenomenon in Peru and the still scarce scientific production on it, this paper provides elements of description, characterization and analysis for its interpretation. The methodology employed has been the review and critical evaluation of secondary sources of historical, sociological, anthropological and political character, from different sources, as well as the description and characterization of the phenomenon itself.
