Abstract

This article analyzes the social and religious life of a small town in the south of Peru. Focusing on the celebration of Holy Week, it studies how particular socioeconomic and cultural groups employ Catholic ritual to articulate their self-understanding, both socio-politically and religiously. The essay uses concepts drawn from the social sciences to help elucidate the theological and missiological challenges one faces in a conflictive social environment.
