What Do Modernist Imaginaries of Circulation Do, and Where Do They Come From
Religious Intolerance and the Semiotics of Secular Indeterminacy in Brazil
The functioning of the liberal order relies on the semiotic indeterminacy of its key concepts—they need to be broad enough to encompass multiple, and at times conflicting articulations—but the denotational open-endedness of these concepts also renders them particularly useful for efforts to unsettle liberal political projects. In Brazil, state institutions’ secularist commitments to retaining “religion” and its derivates as denotationally indeter…

Religious Intolerance, Ethnoracial Law and the Shifting Landscape of Afro-Brazilian Religious Rights in 21st Century Brazil
The legal status of Afro-Brazilian religions has changed dramatically in the past few decades. For much of the 20th century, Afro-Brazilian religions lacked legal recognition as religions. Over the past twenty years, they have become targets and beneficiaries of ethnoracial laws and government institutions fostered by Brazil’s 1988 “Citizens’ Constitution.” Still, most acts of violence on Afro-Brazilian religions fail to reach courts and even few…
Racismo Religioso, Discriminação E Preconceito Religioso, Liberdade Religiosa
Este artigo estende a análise de Ana Paula Mendes de Miranda quanto à complexa relação entre as ideologias raciais brasileiras e a hostilidade às religiões de matriz africana, bem como à "política dos terreiros" advinda dessa relação, situando-as em um contexto mais amplo de debates sobre o tipo de sociedade que o Brasil é e deveria ser. Para este fim, será examinado como as noções de racismo religioso, de discriminação e preconceito religioso e …
Adjudicating Religious Intolerance
Allegations of religious intolerance push courts to deliberate on questions that are constitutive of the problem space of secularism. In addition to legal opinions on the character and scope of religious freedom vis-à-vis conflicting rights, these arbitrations result in authoritative statements on what constitutes religion, how it may inhabit public space, and, ultimately, what interests and values underpin the national collective. This article a…
Evaluating faith after conversion
In 2017, the Finnish Immigration Service received approximately 1,000 asylum applications and appeals based on conversion from Islam to Christianity. The applications claimed that converted asylum seekers would face mortal danger if returned to their countries of origin. The applications posed an unprecedented dilemma for the Finnish Immigration Service: how was it, as a secular state institution, to evaluate these claims of conversion? This ques…
Candomblé and the Academic's Tools
Latin American state efforts to recognize ethnically and racially marked populations have focused on knowledge and expertise. This article argues that this form of state recognition does not only call on subaltern groups to present themselves in a frame of expertise. It also pushes such groups to position themselves and their social and political struggles in a matrix based on expertise and knowledge. In the context of early 2000s Brazil, the dri…
A politics of respect
Alternative politics of democracy shape and are shaped by dominant forms of democracy in circular fashion. In 2009 practitioners of Brazil's many Afro-Brazilian religions gathered in Salvador to develop a religiously grounded mode of democratic politics. Mobilizing a religious formulation of respect, participants in the gathering subsumed government ideals of democratic practice under Afro-Brazilian religious norms of hierarchy and the social ord…
Chronotopic Realignments and the Shifting Semiotics and Politics of Visibility in Brazilian Candomblé Activism
This article examines the shifting semiotics and politics of visibility in Brazilian Candomblé activism in the late 2000s in the city of Salvador. It analyses how the use of publicly salient discourses and signs of peace and antiviolence activism by activists from the African diasporic religion Candomblé reconfigured the religion’s practitioners public image from that of politically passive practitioners of “black magic” and self-sacrificing “bla…

African Accents, Speaking Child Spirits And The Brazilian Popular Imaginary
This chapter addresses seven questions concerning issues such as absence of representations of child spirits in Candomble, representation of Africanness in Candomble, and identity of Africanness in spirit possession performances. It argues that an answer to these questions can be found through an investigation into the ways in which the eres’ African identity comes to be created in their linguistic performance when manifesting in the human world.…
