O estudo objetiva compreender como essa fusão entre fé e tráfico altera as dinâmicas sociais e religiosas dentro das comunidades afetadas. Utilizando o método qualitativo, com base em entrevistas, observação participativa e análise de bibliografia, o trabalho investiga como os traficantes evangélicos utilizam a religião como ferramenta para legitimar suas atividades e estabelecer controle social. A pesquisa também investiga o fato que, embora a conversão religiosa ofereça a esses indivíduos uma nova identidade que pode desencorajar comportamentos criminosos anteriores, ela também introduz novos desafios. O estudo detalha as mudanças nas práticas religiosas assim como as reações das comunidades à ascensão do narco-pentecostalismo, almejando contribuir para uma compreensão mais profunda das dinâmicas de poder e influência religiosa nas favelas do Rio de Janeiro.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128485567/SANTIFICADOS_E_ARMADOS_UMA_AN%C3%81LISE_DA_INTERA%C3%87%C3%83O_DE_RELIGI%C3%83O_E_CRIMINALIDADE_NO_COMPLEXO_DE_ISRAEL"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/122059190/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128482543/Refiguring_Christianity_and_Black_Atlantic_Religion_Representation_Essentialism_and_Christian_Variation_in_the_Southern_Caribbean">Refiguring Christianity and Black Atlantic Religion: Representation, Essentialism, and Christian Variation in the Southern Caribbean</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://unc.academia.edu/BrendanThornton">Brendan Jamal Thornton</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Journal of the American Academy of Religion</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">This article considers the analytic categories scholars use to conceptualize religious difference in the Caribbean and addresses the relatively sparse theorizing of Christianity in the study of so-called syncretic or creole religions of... <a class="more u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">This article considers the analytic categories scholars use to conceptualize religious difference in the Caribbean and addresses the relatively sparse theorizing of Christianity in the study of so-called syncretic or creole religions of the African diaspora. I take the Spiritual Baptists of Trinidad and Tobago as a case study to shed light on the significant divergences between vernacular definitions of Christianity and those designations scholars use to parse and make sense of Afro-Creole diversity. I am especially interested in what is at stake analytically. Spiritual Baptists challenge conventional articulations of Christian orthodoxy and Black Atlantic religiosity by reconciling a "fundamentalist" Christian identity with an especially fluid cosmopolitan eclecticism. Drawing on comprehensive ethnographic research, I show how the unique permutations of creole variation within Spiritual Baptist faith unsettle deterministic equations of race and religion and contest the often manufactured oppositions between Christianity and African religion.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128482543/Refiguring_Christianity_and_Black_Atlantic_Religion_Representation_Essentialism_and_Christian_Variation_in_the_Southern_Caribbean"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/122056728/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128476654/The_political_seduction_of_bourgeois_spirit_Helmuth_Plessners_Calvinist_reading_of_German_history">The political seduction of bourgeois spirit: Helmuth Plessner's Calvinist reading of German history</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://sydney.academia.edu/FranzJosefDeiters">Franz-Josef Deiters</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Thesis Eleven</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">This essay reconstructs the German philosopher and cultural sociologist Helmuth Plessner's reading of Germany's fall into the catastrophe of National Socialism.

The conceptual foundations for his reading were developed in The Limits of Community (1924). There he argued that post-WWI political extremism was characterized by the anti-modernist concept of "community." In The Belated Nation (1935/59), he went on to identify the Lutheran Reformation as the determining turning point in German history. The Lutheran type of consciousness stands at the origin of a self-destructive hermeneutics of suspicion that finally resulted in völkisch thinking. Second, unlike the formation of a democratic spirit in the Calvinist middle classes in Holland and England, in Prussia the Lutheran alliance of throne and altar led to the exclusion of the middle classes from politics, relegating them to the liberal professions of science and art. Finally, I argue that Plessner's own theoretical model of a political anthropology was developed in opposition to the German intellectual classes' failure to prevent or oppose Hitler's rise to power, including his plea for Germany to align with Western European nations shaped by the Calvinist version of the Reformation.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128476654/The_political_seduction_of_bourgeois_spirit_Helmuth_Plessners_Calvinist_reading_of_German_history"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/122051782/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128474611/L_imaginaire_des_cimeti%C3%A8res_en_Belgique">L’imaginaire des cimetières en Belgique</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://independent.academia.edu/MartineRenouprez">Martine Renouprez</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, XX Encuentro Iberoamericano de Valorización y Gestión de Cementerios Patrimoniales.

The methodology adopted in this paper includes using 1) the primary bibliographic sources of the Rosicrucian Tradition, and 2) field research visiting both the headquarters of the Grand Lodge of the English Language Jurisdiction for the Americas, in San Jose, California, and the Grand Lodge of the Portuguese Language Jurisdiction in Curitiba, Brazil. The analysis was made by describing through Transdisciplinary Active Mediation (TAM) one of the main concepts of Traditional Knowledge (TK), then connecting this concept to the teachings of AMORC to find out how the Order works with memory in different ways. In conclusion, four dimensions were found in the Traditional Knowledge of AMORC (scientific, philosophic, educational, and religious or spiritual) and three ceremonies were found regarding memory which mark the development of life (the Naming Ritual or Appellation Rite; the Marriage Ceremony; and the Funeral Service or Higher Initiation).</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128443752/Tradition_Memory_and_Transition_in_AMORCs_Traditional_Knowledge_An_Essay"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/122024444/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128436557/Urban_religious_Worldmaking_in_Africa">Urban-religious Worldmaking in Africa</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://uni-bayreuth.academia.edu/BenjaminKirby">Benjamin Kirby</a> and <details class="authors-dropdown"><summary>1 more</summary><div class="dropdown-content"><div class="dropdown-item"><a href="https://ufh.academia.edu/FrancisSibanda">Francis Sibanda</a></div></div></details></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">This interdisciplinary conference explores the making of urban and religious worlds in and beyond the African continent, demonstrating the importance of African cities for analysing global dynamics of urban-religious transformation.

We use Stephan Lanz's (2016) term urban-religious to emphasise the mutually constitutive relationship between urban and religious spheres-that is, how they are deeply intertwined with and shaped by one another. The notion of worlds captures the multiple ways in which urban-religious life is configured and envisioned. There is no singular model or enactment of the urban-religious; people live and move through multiple, overlapping urban-religious worlds. Worldmaking underscores the ongoing, unfinished character of these worlds: they are continuously made and remade-not only by planners, developers, and state actors, but also through infrastructures, ecosystems, technologies, desires, and memories. This processual framing foregrounds how ordinary residents actively participate in urban-religious worldmaking through everyday practices. Rather than treating African urban-religious worlds as isolated or exceptional, we adopt a comparative approach to examine transregional connections and commonalities between urban-religious formations across and beyond the African continent. In doing so, we aim to develop new conceptual tools for understanding global processes of urban-religious transformation. This conference thus invites researchers to analyse urban-religious dynamics across and beyond Africa through comparative and processual lenses, thereby enriching both urban and religious studies alike.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128436557/Urban_religious_Worldmaking_in_Africa"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/122018471/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128428334/Pedagogies_of_Belief_Teaching_and_Learning_in_a_Small_Christian_School">Pedagogies of Belief: Teaching and Learning in a Small Christian School</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://independent.academia.edu/maheshvarinaidu">maheshvari naidu</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">A vast array of religious phenomena, as well as constantly emerging novel forms and expressions of religious life have actualized a whole range of issues as part of the social sciences, and education, teaching and learning is embraced... <a class="more u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">A vast array of religious phenomena, as well as constantly emerging novel forms and expressions of religious life have actualized a whole range of issues as part of the social sciences, and education, teaching and learning is embraced within this. This article approaches teaching and learning through the hermeneutic of &#39;engaged pedagogy&#39; as put forward by the noted feminist writer bell hooks, and uses Kainon New Church School as a case study for what engaged pedagogy means in the context of teaching within a religious school. The article suggests that such engaged teaching aims at accruing a particular kind of &#39;social&#39; or &#39;religious capital&#39; for the learner. Social capital itself is a reference to the resource embedded in the connections within and between a network and nodal actors in the network, and religious capital is defined (Finke 2003:3) as consisting of an acquirement of &#39;power and level of embeddedness into this or that religious culture&#39;.

Although the end of the process of domestication and economic transformation shows general regional similarities, sub-regional trajectories differ when evidence of economy and domestication processes are examined independently. This research evaluates the presumed linear trajectory, from hunting and gathering to pre-domestication cultivation to domestication with agriculture and explores the mosaic of subsistence practices leading to agricultural reliance. This paper compiles quantitative data on the proportion of crops in archaeobotanical sites over time and across the Near East. Foraging-focused, mixed subsistence and agricultural economies are compared alongside non-shattering data from cereals with the results suggestive of sites with higher levels of food production (agriculture) without domesticated crops, low-levels of food production with domesticated crops, and variability of economic systems when crops were under pre-domestication cultivation. Results show a dominance of mixed-subsistence economic systems and the persistence of "middle ground societies" for nearly 4,000 years, contradicting ethnographic inferences that intermediate or mixed-subsistence economies are unstable. The potential correlation between reliance on cultivation and domestication, as quantified from morphological evidence for non-shattering or grain size change, indicates that there is not a single directional trend in economy and domestication. There also appears to be some evidence for intensification of the reliance on cultivation as domesticated sheep/goat become widespread. These data highlight the need to consider economic trajectories on different sites and regions independently from the evidence for morphological change.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128376955/Contrasting_pathways_to_domestication_and_agriculture_around_Southwest_Asia"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121968262/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128375255/Invocacion_de_DIOS">Invocacion de DIOS</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://independent.academia.edu/DiegoSierra167">Diego Fernando Sierra Cudriz</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Invocación de DIOS</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">Invocación de DIOS Lamento comenzar este mensaje con tal "advertencia", pero las cosas deben ser claras y directas.

Este ritual de contacto, como todo lo que transmito aquí, y a priori desde que empiezo de nuevo los mensajes en mi sitio web, está dirigido a personas de mente abierta pero EQUILIBRADAS. Todos aquellos que deambulan de un dios a otro, un día budista, el siguiente raeliano, antes de convertirse en el evangelista el tercero, no tienen absolutamente nada que hacer en este lugar y menos aún los rituales y meditaciones que se dan. Estos serán ineficaces: nunca DIOS ni ningún otro dios VERDADERO perderá su tiempo con los tontos, porque están ocupados salvando a la Tierra de futuros desastres. Además, una práctica errática de rituales y meditaciones atrae a los "insectos astrales" que están muy contentos de venir y alimentar su feo vientre con usted. Cualquier ritual es un acto de magia. Cualquier acto mágico SIEMPRE tiene consecuencias. Así que sé muy claro contigo mismo. No se permite ningún "turismo" espiritual aquí, solo por tu seguridad. Por lo tanto, si realizas rituales en todas partes, wicca aquí, vudú allí y ahora "un poco de DIOS", gradualmente transformarás tu aura en una pila de energía,</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128375255/Invocacion_de_DIOS"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121966966/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128371618/Peregrina%C3%A7%C3%A3o_turismo_e_nova_era_caminhos_de_Santiago_de_Compostela_no_Brasil">Peregrinação, turismo e nova era: caminhos de Santiago de Compostela no Brasil</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://independent.academia.edu/AlexCarneiro13">Alex Carneiro</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Religião &amp; Sociedade</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">Desde o início dos anos 2000 o panorama das peregrinações realizadas no Brasil vem sendo incrementado com a entrada em cena das novas rotas que têm por inspiração o Caminho de Santiago de Compostela, na Espanha.

While on school premises, young women momentarily lost cognitive and motor functions and became incapacitated. The Iranian public came to recognize and debate the schoolgirls’ condition as a case of mass poisoning that was caused by harmful antigens and criminal agents. This essay offers an alternative to this medical-juridical framing. It locates the incapacitation of the schoolgirls in relation to the limits of debates about women and Islamic society and the ensuing circulation of danger and destructive power that the author conceptualizes psychopolitically through the concept of witchcraft. Rather than treating the schoolgirls’ condition or the Woman, Life, Freedom movement as a momentary lapse of the social, the author conceptualizes them as a manifestation of the impossibility of the social, one that issues from a broader historical and epistemological condition: the incapacitation of tradition. While focused on revolutionary Iran, this study bears on the impersonal circulation of violence and deathliness amid the contemporary incapacitation of authoritative traditions such as religion, science, and law.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128360498/The_Bewitched_City_Psychopolitics_in_the_Wake_of_the_Social"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121955393/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128349420/Divulgadores_cient%C3%ADficos_mostram_se_ignorantes_em_rela%C3%A7%C3%A3o_%C3%A0_religi%C3%A3o">Divulgadores científicos mostram-se ignorantes em relação à religião</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://usp-br.academia.edu/SilasFiorotti">Silas Fiorotti</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, A Pátria</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">Há uma proliferação de influenciadores e divulgadores científicos brasileiros que estão numa cruzada contra aquilo que consideram práticas pseudocientíficas e contra práticas religiosas supostamente danosas.

In addressing the 17 SDGs, as outlined by the United Nations body, the chapter argues that, Ubuntu (humane and community-mindedness) concept is visible, implied (albeit unconsciously), and has the potential of being impactful and transformative, if consciously executed at the global levels. Its starting premise that my humanity and that of the entire cosmos is beholden to the ‘other’ makes a strong case for its potential to positively transform the local and global context sustainably. Hence, it can be bequeathed to the SDG agenda of sustainability as we address disquieting cases such as the civil wars, ethnic balkanizations, xenophobic spirit, ethno-racial tensions, and terrorist activities across Africa, among other Ubulwane/Unyama (inhospitable and beastly) activities. It is also impactful in strengthening global sustainability amidst the Russo-Ukrainian and Hamas-Israeli conflicts, among other international concerns. In addressing the global challenges, the maxim’s Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu (Nguni speakers expression for ‘our humanity is affirmed through relating with others’), will certainly find its expression in concrete terms.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128348632/Ubuntu_Philosophy_and_the_Sustainable_Development_Goals_A_Theo_Afro_Analytical_Review"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121945665/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128346851/2025_Ferretti_Bastide_o_Sincretismo_e_a_Casa_das_Minas_">2025, "Ferretti, Bastide, o Sincretismo e a Casa das Minas"</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://fcsh-unl.academia.edu/Jo%C3%A3oLeal">João Leal</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Revista Pós Ciências Sociais </p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">Este artigo é uma contribuição para a história da antropologia das religiões de matriz africana no Brasil.

Debruça-se sobre as tematizações contraditórias de Roger Bastide e Sérgio Ferretti sobre o sincretismo e a Casa das Minas (São Luís, MA). Começo por apresentar os aspectos principais da reflexão de Bastide sobre os dois tópicos, para depois me concentrar nas críticas de Ferretti ao antropólogo e sociólogo francês. Estas desenvolvem-se em dois planos: um deles é dominado pela crítica ao famoso “princípio do corte” defendido por Bastide; o outro tem a ver com a abordagem de Bastide à Casa das Minas, apresentada como o terreiro mais africano do Brasil, onde o sincretismo seria irrelevante. Examino seguidamente os apoios bibliográficos mobilizados por Bastide em defesa do seu ponto de vista. Na conclusão, regresso a Sérgio Ferretti, de forma a situar melhor a sua importância na antropologia das religiões afro-brasileiras dos anos 1990.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128346851/2025_Ferretti_Bastide_o_Sincretismo_e_a_Casa_das_Minas_"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121944251/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128343694/Mantec%C3%B3n_Movell%C3%A1n_Tom%C3%A1s_A_Las_cofrad%C3%ADas_de_la_Vera_Cruz_y_la_proscripci%C3%B3n_de_la_flagelaci%C3%B3n_p%C3%BAblica_en_la_Espa%C3%B1a_Moderna_en_Actas_IV_Congreso_Internacional_de_Hermandades_y_Cofrad%C3%ADas_de_la_Vera_Cruz_Zamora_Imprenta_Jambrina_pp_545_568">Mantecón Movellán, Tomás A.: "Las cofradías de la Vera Cruz y la proscripción de la flagelación pública en la España Moderna", en Actas.

The culture of suffering associated with Catholic religious forms of experience and the changes experienced in Spanish society throughout the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries are characterized, demonstrating very substantial changes, singularly known after the first decades of the eighteenth century and before the criticisms of the enlightened reformers. It is shown that society, within its endogenous dynamics of change, introduced elements of innovation in sociability and spirituality prior to the emergence and diffusion of Enlightenment projectism. <br />_______________________________________________________________________________________ <br />Esta investigación analiza el significado de la penitencia, así como la práctica de la misma a través de la flagelación pública en el marco de la religiosidad y vida religiosa postridentina. Se caracteriza la cultura del sufrimiento asociada a las formas de vivencia religiosas católicas y los cambios experimentados en la sociedad española a lo largo de los siglos XVI, XVII y XVIII, demostrando cambios muy sustanciales, singularmente conocidos con posterioridad a las primeras décadas del siglo XVIII y antes de las críticas de los reformistas ilustrados. Se demuestra que la sociedad, dentro de sus dinámicas endógenas de cambio, introdujo elementos de innovación en la sociabilidad y espiritualidad previos a la eclosión y difusión del proyectismo de la Ilustración.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128343694/Mantec%C3%B3n_Movell%C3%A1n_Tom%C3%A1s_A_Las_cofrad%C3%ADas_de_la_Vera_Cruz_y_la_proscripci%C3%B3n_de_la_flagelaci%C3%B3n_p%C3%BAblica_en_la_Espa%C3%B1a_Moderna_en_Actas_IV_Congreso_Internacional_de_Hermandades_y_Cofrad%C3%ADas_de_la_Vera_Cruz_Zamora_Imprenta_Jambrina_pp_545_568"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121941467/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128343130/Telog%C3%ADa_de_la_adicci%C3%B3n_y_recuperaci%C3%B3n">Telogía de la adicción y recuperación</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://facultadadventista.academia.edu/DiegoCalvoMerino">Diego Calvo Merino</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">La teología de la recuperación en adicciones representa un enfoque que integra principios espirituales y religiosos en el proceso de sanación de las personas que luchan contra dependencias.

A continuación, presento un resumen detallado de este enfoque: <br /> <br />Fundamentos teológicos de la recuperación <br />Integración de fe y sanación <br />La teología de la recuperación parte de la premisa de que la sanación completa de las adicciones debe abordar todas las dimensiones del ser humano: física, mental, emocional y espiritual. Este enfoque reconoce que la espiritualidad juega un papel fundamental en el proceso de recuperación, proporcionando un marco de significado, propósito y trascendencia. <br /> <br />El concepto de rendición y poder superior <br />Un principio central es la aceptación de la propia impotencia frente a la adicción y la necesidad de rendirse ante un poder superior. Como señalan muchos programas de recuperación basados en la fe: "Crea que el poder de Dios puede restaurar su salud espiritual por completo. Tras percatarnos de nuestra impotencia frente a las adicciones, la mayoría llegamos a creer que un poder superior a nosotros mismos puede devolvernos la salud espiritual." <br /> <br />Modelos y programas principales <br />Los Doce Pasos y su base espiritual <br />El programa de Doce Pasos, originado en Alcohólicos Anónimos, representa uno de los modelos más influyentes que incorpora principios espirituales en la recuperación. Aunque no está vinculado a una religión específica, su enfoque incluye: <br /> <br />Reconocimiento de la impotencia personal <br /> <br />Rendición a un poder superior (según lo entienda cada persona) <br /> <br />Inventario moral y ético <br /> <br />Reparación de relaciones dañadas <br /> <br />Ayuda a otros que sufren adicciones <br /> <br />Programas cristianos específicos <br />Existen programas como "Celebremos la Recuperación" que adaptan los principios de recuperación desde una perspectiva explícitamente cristiana, integrando las enseñanzas bíblicas con procesos terapéuticos. Estos programas se centran en "un programa de recuperación basado en ocho principios de las bienaventuranzas". <br /> <br />Principios teológicos fundamentales <br />La comprensión de la naturaleza humana <br />La teología de la recuperación suele partir de una visión del ser humano como criatura caída pero redimible. Las adicciones se entienden como manifestaciones de una desconexión espiritual y una búsqueda equivocada de satisfacción. <br /> <br />El proceso de transformación <br />La recuperación se concibe como un proceso de transformación integral que implica: <br /> <br />Reconocimiento del problema (confesión) <br /> <br />Arrepentimiento y cambio de dirección <br /> <br />Restauración de relaciones (con Dios, con uno mismo y con otros) <br /> <br />Crecimiento en virtudes espirituales <br /> <br />Servicio a otros que sufren <br /> <br />Comunidad y acompañamiento <br />Un elemento esencial es la importancia de la comunidad en el proceso de recuperación. La sanación no ocurre en aislamiento, sino en el contexto de relaciones de apoyo y acompañamiento mutuo. <br /> <br />Enfoque integral: ciencia y fe <br />Los expertos contemporáneos enfatizan que la recuperación efectiva requiere una integración de fe, ciencia y acompañamiento pastoral. Como señala una fuente reciente: "La cura de las adicciones requiere fe, ciencia y compromiso pastoral basado en el amor". <br /> <br />Este enfoque integral reconoce que los avances científicos en neurobiología y psicología de las adicciones pueden complementarse con las dimensiones espirituales y teológicas para ofrecer un abordaje más completo. <br /> <br />Conclusión <br />La teología de la recuperación ofrece un marco para entender las adicciones no solo como problemas médicos o psicológicos, sino como desafíos que involucran la dimensión espiritual humana. Al integrar principios espirituales con conocimientos científicos actualizados, este enfoque busca promover una sanación integral que transforme no solo conductas, sino también valores, propósito de vida y relaciones fundamentales. <br /> <br />Este enfoque reconoce que la recuperación es un camino de transformación continua que implica todas las dimensiones de la persona y que encuentra en la espiritualidad una fuente de fortaleza, significado y esperanza.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128343130/Telog%C3%ADa_de_la_adicci%C3%B3n_y_recuperaci%C3%B3n"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121940955/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more');

Balbina, tú has leído este libro, 1 ¿verdad? En nuestra primera pregunta, me gustaría conocer tu opinión como indígena pemón sobre este libro. Whitehead trabajó con los patamona, ¿qué pensamientos te vinieron cuando leíste el libro? Balbina: Un saludo desde la selva del Amazonas, el pulmón del mundo, y la selva es testigo de lo que voy a decir. Este libro me revela muchas cosas. Yo diría que es el cono-cimiento ancestral de las culturas indígenas. El kanaima es una cosa que se utilizaba en las culturas ancestrales para, por ejemplo, destruir a un enemigo. Era una defensa, pero claro, religiosamente hablando, algo malo, pero era una defensa. Hoy en día los jóvenes lo utilizan como una especie de arte, creen que saben hacerlo y que pueden destruir a una persona. Matan y hacen el mal, pero ya no miden las consecuencias. Por eso te digo, Matthias, que hay que tener mucho cuidado, pero se puede escribir sobre ellos, ¡sí! Tenemos que revelar que en la cultura indígena, como los ninjas en Japón, teníamos el kanaima. Tenemos que revelar eso, pero no todo. Porque hay o había muchas personas con mentes dañadas que utilizaban o aplicaban estos conocimientos, incluso en nuestra cultura kamarakoto. Pero ya no quedan muchos, no nos han dejado sus secretos.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128337781/Hay_que_hacer_una_nueva_cesta"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121936456/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more');

The result of SEM statistical testing indicates that culture (for instance cultural values), socio-culture (for instance interethnic experience) and psycho-culture (for instance social prejudice) formed the interethnic stereotype that may influence the intercultural business communication competence. The results also approved that intercultural business communication competence is formed by motivation, knowledge and skill of communications in accordance with Spitzbergâ€™s model. It indicates that ethnocentrism attitude toward other ethnic is not categorized as high but still exist.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128306853/Stereotip_dan_Kompetensi_Komunikasi_Bisnis_Antarbudaya_Bali_dan_Cina_Studi_Di_Kalangan_Pengusaha_Perak_Bali_Dan_Cina_"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121910171/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128302582/Ef%C3%A9sio_6_11_18_Comentado_Vers%C3%ADculo_por_Vers%C3%ADculo_Como_Explicar_A_Armadura_do_Senhor_Capacete_da_Salva%C3%A7%C3%A3o_e_a_Espada_do_Esp%C3%ADrito_JMMSaramago">Efésio 6:11-18> Comentado Versículo por Versículo Como Explicar> A Armadura do Senhor, Capacete da Salvação e a Espada do Espírito?

This notion is reflected in the idol<br />sculpture of the late Paleolithic of Central Europe. From this era we have sculptures<br />representing female figures with accentuated feminine forms as a symbol of fertility.<br />The appearance of these stylized female images in the late Paleolithic speaks of a<br />mental concept that has both its prehistory and its sequel.<br />Before arriving at an anthropomorphic image, the idea of the omnipresent nature<br />of the earth was probably personified by various topos symbolically associated with<br />the feminine symbolizm, such as caves or other forms and phenomena embodying<br />the regenerating power of nature.<br />The aftermath of this fundamental symbol of the female archetype in human<br />thinking is also very long. In an almost unchanged form, it silently appears in a<br />number of Neolithic and Chalcolithic cultures from Europe and the Mediterranean,<br />almost until 4,000 BC. That is, for a period of almost 25,000 years, this image has<br />dominated the proto-art of mankind.<br />We can say that this is the time of the fundamental construction of human<br />symbolic thinking, illustrated in Jung’s concepts as the ground floor – the basis of<br />the structure of the human mentality.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128291639/%D0%9E%D0%91%D0%A0%D0%90%D0%97%D0%AA%D0%A2_%D0%9D%D0%90_%D0%92%D0%95%D0%9B%D0%98%D0%9A%D0%90%D0%A2%D0%90_%D0%91%D0%9E%D0%93%D0%98%D0%9D%D0%AF_%D0%9C%D0%90%D0%99%D0%9A%D0%90_%D0%9A%D0%90%D0%A2%D0%9E_%D0%A4%D0%A3%D0%9D%D0%94%D0%90%D0%9C%D0%95%D0%9D%D0%A2%D0%90%D0%9B%D0%95%D0%9D_%D0%9C%D0%98%D0%A2%D0%9E%D0%9B%D0%9E%D0%93%D0%98%D0%A7%D0%95%D0%9D_%D0%90%D0%A0%D0%A5%D0%95%D0%A2%D0%98%D0%9F_THE_IMAGE_OF_THE_GREAT_MOTHER_GODDESS_AS_A_FUNDAMENTAL_MYTHOLOGICAL_ARCHETYPE"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121897487/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128288495/Bamboo_Angklung_Incorporating_Indonesia_into_the_Music_Education_Classroom">Bamboo Angklung: Incorporating Indonesia into the Music Education Classroom</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://sandiego.academia.edu/MeghanHynson">Meghan Hynson</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Music Educators Journal</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">This article discusses the bamboo angklung as a viable instrument to teach Indonesian music and culture in the music education classroom.

In particular, this article presents pedagogical models used in Indonesian schools and cultural centers and examines how the angklung can be used to teach not only music and Indonesian culture but also Indonesian social values and history. Suggestions for hands-on activities and transcriptions of folk songs are provided to help teachers introduce Indonesian culture and angklung in a way that also strengthens skills in audiation, matching pitch, and recognizing scale degrees.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128288495/Bamboo_Angklung_Incorporating_Indonesia_into_the_Music_Education_Classroom"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121894780/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128281824/Les_raisons_dune_rencontre_Athanase_lAthonite_et_les_Moines_italo_grecs">Les raisons d'une rencontre : Athanase l'Athonite et les Moines italo-grecs</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://sns.academia.edu/LuigidAyalaValva">Luigi d'Ayala Valva</a></div><div class="work-metadata"><p class="ds-work-card--detail ds2-5-body-sm">2025, Irénikon</p></div><div class="summary"><div class="summarized">Some evidence from the Lives of St Athanasius the Athonite, the founder of the Great Lavra (963), tells us of his relations with Italo-Greek, i.e. Byzantine monks from Southern Italy.

Contemporary Athonite documents also testify to the existence of at least two monasteries founded by Italo-<br />Greeks on Mount Athos. How can these testimonies be explained?<br />What were the reasons for this encounter? After briefly outlining<br />the prehistory of these two parallel branches of Byzantine monasticism<br />and the shape they achieved in the mid-10th century, the<br />A. goes on to take a closer look at the evidence documenting the<br />presence of Italo-Greek monks on Mount Athos and, in particular,<br />their encounter with Athanasius, the founder of Lavra. The main<br />reasons for this encounter are identified, on the one hand, in the<br />latter’s extraordinary ‘ecumenical’ spirit (well documented by his<br />Typikon), which made him able of attracting and open to welcoming<br />foreign monks, without any ethnic or cultural bias, and on the<br />other in his personal monastic journey as a hermit who, almost<br />despite himself, came to found a monastery, always preserving a<br />fundamentally hesychastic spirit. Such personal characteristics of<br />Athanasius, together with the ‘hybrid’ character of the monastic<br />system he established (which resembled the synthesis that was<br />attempted in Southern Italy) was probably precisely what attracted<br />the Italo-Greek monks, such as Nicephorus “the Nude” and others<br />after him, and made the encounter between these monks not only<br />possible but fruitful.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128281824/Les_raisons_dune_rencontre_Athanase_lAthonite_et_les_Moines_italo_grecs"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121889071/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more');

At that time, Protestants (7.6% of the world’s religious population) shared 54.5% of the Olympic gold medals. Catholics (23.6% of <br />the world’s religious population), on the other hand, shared 40% of the <br />Olympic gold medals. Normally, the success of Protestants in sport is <br />explained in the context of Max Weber’s theory of the ‘Protestant ethic <br />and the spirit of capitalism’. However, we will take a slightly different <br />approach. Since sport is fundamentally linked to the human being, the <br />differences in the conception of the human being are also reflected in <br />the differences in the understanding of sport. Our approach will therefore be to examine the theological and philosophical anthropology of <br />these two Christian dominances, to identify their similarities and differences, and to deduce the reasons for the success of Protestant athletes (especially in individual sports) and the reasons for the success of Catholic athletes in some major team sports (e.g. football). Furthermore, we will try to describe the ‘ideal sport’ as it results from their specific anthropological vision of human nature.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128274791/HOMO_FABER_AND_HOMO_LUDENS_PROTESTANT_AND_CATHOLIC_CONCEPTION_OF_SPORT"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121883135/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more'); moreLinks.forEach(link => { const summary = link.closest('.summary'); const summarized = summary.querySelector('.summarized'); const complete = summary.querySelector('.complete'); // Only show more link if we have both summarized and complete content if (!summarized || !complete) { link.style.display = 'none'; return; } link.addEventListener('click', (e) => { e.preventDefault(); summarized.classList.add('hidden'); complete.classList.remove('hidden'); // Hide the more link since we don't want to toggle back link.style.display = 'none'; }); }); }); // To allow for closing the author dropdown when clicking outside of it document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('details.authors-dropdown'); dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => { if (!dropdown.contains(event.target) && dropdown.hasAttribute('open')) { dropdown.removeAttribute('open'); } }); });</script></div><div class="div"><div class="work-card-container"><div class="title"><a attrs="data-click-track topics--work-card-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/128270816/Convocatoria_tema_libre_en_antropolog%C3%ADa_y_arqueolog%C3%ADa_Call_Chamada">Convocatoria tema libre en antropología y arqueología / Call / Chamada</a></div><div class="authors">by <a href="https://uniandes.academia.edu/RevistaDeAntropologiaYArqueologiaYArqueologia">Antípoda.

Jelenleg az MTA BTK Néprajztudományi Intézetének munkatársa és a Sárospataki Református Teológia tanára. Lényegét tekintve a háta mögött álló Istent kereső néhol fotográfus, máskor református teológus, esetleg kulturális antropológus vagy kommunikációkutató, de leginkbb mindegyik egyszerre. Köztes és talán közvetítő létező, s ekként hagyott rajta mély nyomot, amikor alig egy éve Visky Andrással személyesen is találkozott. A legtöbb vallásnak megvannak a maga szakrális terei és tájai, vagyis a fizikai térnek azok a jól kijelölhető terrénumai, melyeket az adott vallás szerint a transzcendens magának kijelöl, melyeken megmutatkozik, illetve amelyekben az adott vallás követői a transzcendens mutatkozását felismerik. Ezek a terek és persze tárgyak, melyek valamilyen módon magukon hordozzák a transzcendens nyomát, általában fontos szerepet töltenek be az adott vallás gyakorlatában, rítusaiban, és olykor mindennapi életében is. Nyomot hagynak a közösségen -ugyanakkor az őket használó közösség is nyomot hagy rajtuk. Ezek a szentnek tekintett terek és tárgyak így egy különleges kapcsolatot jelölnek a transzcendens és a közösség, illetve annak tagjai között. A református teológia -szemben például a római katolikusokkal -az ótestamentumi szent sátor, illetve az annak örökébe lépő jeruzsálemi templom kivételével tagadja annak lehetőségét, hogy az ilyen terek és tárgyak folyamatosan a transzcendens mutatkozásának médiumai lennének. A gyakorlat azonban ezen a téren is különbözik az elmélettől. A református felekezeti identitásnak ugyanis több olyan territoriális eleme van, melyekhez a gyakorlatban úgy viszonyulnak az egyes közösségek, mint amelyek a transzcendens mutatkozásának állandó hordozói. Ezek a terek és tárgyak ugyanakkor szoros kapcsolatban állnak az adott közösség történetével, identitásával is: olyan identitásszimbólumok, melyek sűrítik a történeti tapasztalatot, s ekként a közösségi emlékezet helyeiként is működnek. 3 Az egyik legismertebb ilyen tárgy Kossuth Lajos széke a debreceni református Nagytemplomban, me-</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-view" href="https://www.academia.edu/128258885/Nyomot_hagyni_Az_eml%C3%A9kez%C3%A9s_reform%C3%A1tus_t%C3%A1jai"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">description</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View Paper</span></a><a class="ds2-5-text-link no-padding" data-click-track="topics--work-card-download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121869938/download_file?st=MTc0MzI4NDc3Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=topics-page-work-card" rel="nofollow"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">arrow_downward</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download</span></a></div></div><script>document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => { const moreLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.more');

Religious transfers and the mobility of religious practices were explored in stand-alone studies, although religious transfer is usually seen as part of cultural <br />transfer in the broadest sense of the word. This paper focuses on the emergence of European neo-Protestant <br />missionaries, especially from the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In the interwar period, Adventism was already established in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (later Kingdom of Yugoslavia). Adventism’s <br />roots in this region date back to the late 19th century, with the first Serbian-speaking believers appearing in <br />1901–1902 and the first church building erected in Kumane in 1905. Despite internal growth, the Adventists faced scrutiny from the SOC clergy and local authorities, particularly as their pacifist stance clashed with  state expectations during the turbulent 1920s and 1930s. The Adventist community faced internal divisions influenced by the global schism that led to the formation of the Seventh-day Adventist Reform Movement. <br />The chapter analyzes the emergence, development, and challenges of the Adventist religious movement in interwar Yugoslavia. It sheds light on how religious transfers impacted the socio-religious landscape of the <br />period, focusing on Adventism’s growth, internal schisms, and external opposition. By examining the movement’s interactions with the Serbian Orthodox Church, state authorities, and other religious groups (such as <br />the Nazarenes), the paper provides a nuanced understanding of how a neo-Protestant group navigated its position as a religious minority amidst political, cultural, and social complexities.</div></div><div class="button-container"><a class="ds2-5-text-link
