Abstract

The religious conversion from Catholicism to Pentecostism is marked by a strong emotional component. A life style is left and another one is acquired. In general, social sciences have looked at this phenomenom from a rational approach, reducing it to time-categories such as “before” or “after” and, thus, disregard the centrality of the phenomenon. This article discusses this problem by means of the new currents of cultural analysis.
