RODRIGUEZ LOPEZ, Abel. Religión o praxis religiosa en el mundo indígena: El caso rarámuri del Alto Río Conchos. Cuicuilco [online]. 2012, vol.19, n.55, pp.43-68. ISSN 0185-1659.

This article is a critique on the concept of religion used nowadays in anthropological and historical studies that have analyzed the religious perspectives of the rarámuri (or tarahumaras). By way of a dialogue between anthropology and philosophy, it is an attempt to deconstruct the said concept by proposing religious praxis, the contents of which, according to the author, seem more appropriate when making future reference to this social phenomenon between the rarámuri of the upper Conchos river.

Keywords : rarámuri; tarahumara; religion; religation; religious praxis.
