PEREZ-VELA, Rolando. Neo-progresive religious activism: The Contentious Evangelical Narrative in the Peruvian Public Space. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2022, vol.43, n.92, pp.73-110.  Epub 18-Mar-2022. ISSN 2007-9176.  https://doi.org/10.28928/ri/922022/atc3/perezvelar.

This essay addresses and analyzes the discourse and strategy of evangelical actors who have built their action and power in the public space from collective protest action, political advocacy and interaction with other actors and spaces of civil society. The analysis emphasizes the implications and resignifications of the strategy of appropriation of public space by groups and networks linked to evangelical neo-progressivism. Our analysis contributes to the discussion about how religious capital contributes to the processes of collective action and social mobilization. It also allows us to recognize the other face of the evangelical in the public sphere, which contrasts with the discourse and practices of neo-fundamentalist religion and which is located on the frontier of protestant religious activism.

Palavras-chave : public religion; collective action; religious progressivism; evangelical representations.
