In Middle-Class Pentecostalism in Argentina: Inappropriate Spirits
Jens Koehrsen offers an intriguing account of how the middle class
relates to Latin Americas most vibrant religious movement. Based on
pervasive field research, this study suggests that Pentecostalism
stands in tension with the social imaginary of the middle class and
is perceived as an inappropriate lower class practice. As such,
middle class Pentecostals negotiate the appropriateness of their
religious belonging by demonstrating distinctive tastes and styles
of Pentecostalism. Abstaining from the expressiveness,
emotionality, and strong spiritual practice that have marked the
movement, they create a milder and socially more acceptable form of
Pentecostalism. Increasingly turning into a middle class movement,
this style has the potential to embody the future shape of
Pentecostalism.
