Quem é o meu próximo?: afiliação religiosa e constituição de redes sociais de solidariedade.

Abstract

In this thesis we discuss the production of social solidarity networks based on value system affiliation in general and more specifically, religious affiliation as a defining variable of modes of interaction - approach and withdrawal; and cooperation - inclusion / exclusion of those who will be considered as 'worthy next' and 'unworthy Gentiles' from participating in the networks mentioned. The theoretical perspective is based on the classic and contemporary sociological debate on the production of social solidarity. As an original contribution, we propose a typical-ideal model to analyze the modus operandi of the configuration of solidarity networks based on symbolic consanguinity ties, more particularly focusing on the influence of the aforementioned variable on the construction of social solidarity networks. The methodology uses as primary data for the construction of the proposed model the research undertaken in our master's dissertation (GAMA, 2015) and the systematic observation made in Pentecostal communities between 2015-2017, in Campina Grande - PB, from the which we identified in the religious communities surveyed the production of emotional grammars and their capacity for shaping social networks of solidarity mediated by religious affiliation. After all, from the sources cited, we present the explanatory model typified in three zones: (1) the institutional zone of solidarity (ZIS); Experimental Solidarity Zone (ZES); and zone of dissonant solidarity (ZSD).
