Abstract
- In this article we discuss the results of research on meanings attributed to religious minorities, Afro-Brazilian Religions (RAb's) by participants with and without religion and their relations with Religious Intolerance (IR). We adopted the Theory of Social Representations in conjunction with Intergroup Relations and Social Identities. The method is qualitative with analysis techniques aided by the Iramuteq software in free word association questionnaires applied to 165 participants and content analysis of the justifications for the evoked associations. The results suggest changes and continuities: on the one hand, a social thought of exclusion influenced by dominant religious discourses; on the other hand, the representation of RAb's as religions, with indications of ambiguities in the Central Nucleus. Objectification with new elements (religion and culture) and old ones (rituals, spirit, terreiro, orixás) was observed. In the nuclei of meaning of the group with religion: exclusion of black people and anchoring in rituals; emphasis on ritualistic, visual and performative corporeality expressing symbolic meanings of malignity demonization of good people (with religion) X evil people (Rab's). The results suggest an institutionalized belief in people and a sense of social belonging, inclusion in the group identity and exclusion of the 'different', which can lead to an intensification of intolerance.
