La construcción de corporalidad de los y las asistentes a la iglesia “hogares cristianos fuente de vida”

Abstract

The body has been the place and object of analysis, since it is from the configuration of corporeality that one can account for a set of symbolic constructions governed by imaginary constants regulated by a set of institutions that the same subject approves, to exercise constant control and vigilance over the actions of the body. Thus, the present investigation focuses on the construction of corporality that the assistants make through the speeches that are emitted from the Iglesia Hogares Cristianos Fuente de Vida, a church that is conceptualized as a fundamentalist Protestant Christian. It is analyzed how the management of the body occurs from control technologies that respond to a duty to be of women and men in two different stages of life: youth and married life. From sexuality to the roles of women and men in the family, it aims to be built on the discourses of the Church, since the purpose is to establish rules by which the behavior of believers must be governed, in such a way that It is possible to maintain a permanent vigilance both of the people about themselves, and from the control apparatus that is the Church. In order to know how the corporality of those attending the Fuente de Vida Church is built, this research is divided into two parts. In the first part the exposition of the problem, the contextualization of the population, the theoretical and conceptual bases that gave the guidelines to develop the investigation and the methodological proposal that was carried out for the collection of information are exposed.
