This book is at the crossroads where a New Age sensibility,
advancing like an ecumen of worldwide spirituality without
national, cultural, or ecclesiastical frontiers, meets Latin
America's syncretic religions, practiced by groups of people wiht
African or indigenous roots or developed from the tradition of
popular Catholicism. The Syncretic character of the two
sensibilities makes both the New Age and popular religion behave
like two, syncretizing and syncreticizable matrices of meaning.
This book opens up a rich vein of debate with new dilemmas and
discussions, that will provide a framework for a new field of study
in anthropology. What new ways of signifying living and
experiencing religion is the New Age generating in Latin America?
What are its limits?
