Böcker av Hugo G. Nutini

Evangelical Christianity is Mexico's fastest-growing religious movement, with about ten million adherents today. This book focuses on two sharply contrastive native evangelical sects in Central Mexico: Amistad y Vida (Friendship and Life) and La Luz del Mundo (The Light of the World).

Based on fifty years of ethnographic fieldwork, as well as extensive archival research, this is the most complete study of the historical evolution of Mexico's class system currently available.

An authoritative ethnography of how provincial Mexican social classes and upward mobility have changed dramatically since the 1910 Revolution.

Describes the transformation of the Mexican aristocracy from the onset of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, when the aristocracy was unquestionably Mexico's highest-ranking social class, until the end of the twentieth century, when it had almost ceased to function as a superordinate social group.
