Dans cet article, l'auteur s'interroge sur les facteurs histo riques et sociaux qui font obstacle à l'intégration des castes inférieures dans les communautés chrétiennes du Kerala. Si, dans l'ensemble de la structure sociale de l'Inde, les chrétiens s'intègrent difficilement, pour ceux qui proviennent des castes inférieures, cette difficulté est plus grande encore. Les con versions ont été nombreuses à l'intérieur de ces castes et ont représenté un moyen concret de promotion sociale; toutefois, dans le système ecclésial lui-même, une ségrégation sub siste : lieux de culte séparés, personnel ecclésiastique différent selon les castes, etc... Aussi, le retour à l'hindouisme est-il de plus en plus fré quent dans les castes inférieures qui, de cette manière, ob tiennent de nouveau l'assistance des pouvoirs publics. On assiste également à la création d'Eglises indépendantes, qui recrutent dans ces castes, et dont le message social est plus ou moins radical et révolutionnaire. L'auteur estime que l'obstacle principal réside dans l'im possibilité de modifier l'image sociale, mais aussi dans l'iden tité des castes inférieures. La conversion au christianisme n'a pu transformer une religiosité plus ou moins magique, pas plus qu'elle n'a pu modifier les modèles familiaux ou le niveau de vie.

"Tracing the rise and development of the Ghanaian video film industry between 1985 and 2010, Sensational Movies examines video movies as seismographic devices recording a culture and society in turmoil. This book captures the dynamic process of popular filmmaking in Ghana as a new medium for the imagination and tracks the interlacing of the medium's technological, economic, social, cultural, and religious aspects. Stepping into the void left by the defunct state film industry, video movies negotiate the imaginaries deployed by state cinema on the one hand and Christianity on the other. Birgit Meyer analyzes Ghanaian video as a powerful, sensational form. Colliding with the state film industry's representations of culture, these movies are indebted to religious notions of divination and revelation. Exploring the format of "film as revelation," Meyer unpacks the affinity between cinematic and popular Christian modes of looking and showcases the transgressive potential haunting figurations of the occult. In this brilliant study, Meyer offers a deep, conceptually innovative analysis of the role of visual culture within the politics and aesthetics of religious world making."--Provided by publisher
