MANCHADO, Mauricio. The religious conquest of the confinement. Pentecostalism and government strategies in the Argentine prison system. Polis [online]. 2019, vol.18, n.52, pp.140-153. ISSN 0718-6568.  http://dx.doi.org/10.32735/s0718-6568/2019-n52-1372.

The article aims to investigate the role of the religious-evangelical-pentecostal device, as a tactic of governmentality, in the management of the confinement based on the description of its origin, growth and consolidation in the prisons of Santa Fe (Argentina). Practices and speeches that were object, on the part of the penitentiary service, of absolute rejection, then moderate acceptance and finally coordinated action. In this sense, we will also seek to reflect on the social order, the set of reciprocities and the narratives that characterize it, since this will allow us to understand the senses that enable and sustain this positioning in the framework of a punitive institution such as the prison in the province of Santa Fe.

Palabras clave : evangelism; governmentality; prison; reciprocities; narratives.
