Introduction
Keyword(s):
This introductory chapter presents, as an example of the complexity of contemporary religiosity in Latin America, the lived religion of a woman from Cordoba, Argentina, named Norma—the way in which this regular woman connects with a suprahuman power using different religious venues, in spite of the fact that she identifies as Catholic. Her story shows some of the problems we have in understanding the Latin American religious landscape if we employ theoretical tools that are not appropriate. In order to solve this problem, the chapter explains the methodology used in the book to explore Latin Americans’ lived religion, and the author’s position. The chapter finishes with a description of the book ahead.
