Description
Summary:The political participation of evangelicals in Colombia has been the consequence of two waves of religious mobilization. I hypothesis is that religious mobilization in the political field has been based on the demand for religious equality(in the 1990s) and the defense of Christian morality (in the 2010s). My objective is to describe the two wave of evangelical political mobilization in Colombia and its implications for the political arena. I have used diverse documentary sources (internal documents of some parties, books, dissertations, journals) and interviews with political and religious leaders, as well as some years of participant observationin some religious services and political meetings.
