THEMED TABLES AND COORDINATORS:
Table 1. Migration, institutions and devotions.
Luis Rodolfo Morán Quiroz. Department of Regional Culture Studies. University of Guadalajara. Rmoranq@gmail.com
The movement of people from one space to another is often accompanied by devotions religious and institutional loyalties. In the case of Catholicism, there is evidence that migrants, both those who cross international borders as performing transfers within their own country, carrying with them images placed back in their homes and places of worship of the host society . In this table are interested in discussing works that display the devotions associated with the transfer space and rebuilt or innovative loyalties that are generated by the transfer of individuals and groups of believers. What images carried by migrants? What space and time they devoted to religious activity and devotion of their localities and groups of origin? What As religious institutions are in spaces of sociality among believers-migrants in the areas of origin and destination? What do the different churches efforts to protect the faithful in various stages of transfer, from the decision to migrate, transfer, border crossing until the arrival and establishment in the host society? How do these efforts help to preserve or expand the base of parishioners loyal to certain institutional expressions and to what extent are recorded conversions and multiple loyalties of migrants?
Table 2. Religions, Churches, Poverty, Inequality and Social Justice Genaro
Zalpa, Maria Eugenia Patiño (Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes), Hans Egil Offerdal (University of Bergen, Norway).

Mexico is part of a region, Latin America, which is both a region on the one hand very religious, especially Christian , and mostly Catholic, and on the other, according to the 2010 Report of the United Nations Program for Development, "is the most unequal region of the world ... social inequality and their faces visible are a reality for every citizen."
Given this dual reality, one wonders whether the religions and churches:
• do not have to do with the reality of poverty, inequality and injustice,
• contribute in some way, perhaps unintended effect, to reproduce,
• if they help to prevent such phenomena grow even more.
invited to submit papers on the table to seek answers to these questions from different disciplinary perspectives and from the study of different regions, religions, churches and religious groups.
Table 3. New Age reinterpretations of syncretic traditions
Renée de la Torre, Cristina Gutiérrez Zúñiga
renee@ciesas.edu.mx ; Mcgz@coljal.edu.mx
In Mexico (as in several Latin American countries) sensitivity, new era - an expression of a religion of globalization - has sparked a fascination with the spiritual quest linked to the values of nature, ancient, pure, magic, esoteric, alternative healing, etc.. From the 80, the new age has come into interaction with various syncretic religious and ethnic traditions and helped them to be reinterpreted from an array of holistic, eclectic, and universal. In this session we are interested in knowledge of how spiritual seekers resort shamanic practices of native groups and the appropriate and redefine, the way the spiritual tourism authorities transformed the sacred directions and practices and traditional rituals cycles, the manner in which various sacred symbols and practices with indigenous, traditional and farmer to contact other spiritualities, usually of Eastern origin or esoteric, generate new cultural hybridity, the way that incorporates traditional medicine and therapeutic circuits undergo semantic network era, the way the concept of body and the person are transformed discursive and experimentally.
Table 4. Religion and Sexuality
Alberto H. Hernandez Ahdez@colef.mx
This panel seeks to open all those papers that address the issue of religion and sexuality from different perspectives and academic disciplines that enables the measurement of the complexity and importance of this study universe.
This panel may deal with relationships or frictions that keep the different faiths on current issues such as abortion, the role of women in religious institutions, sexual diversity and marriage between same-sex couples.
this table will be sought to publicize work of a subject little discussed in previous meetings of the Rifrem and whose dimension is part the new religious landscape of Mexico.
Table 5. Methodological strategies and research projects for the study of religion
Karla Y. Covarrubias Cuéllar. Culture Programme of the University Center for Social Research (CUIS). University of Colima. Karlacuis@gmail.com
processes are reflective of our fundamental research to understand the business. Every researcher should be an epistemologist or at least a methodologist, working in a conscious knowledge processes in the sense of experience and reflective of knowledge. This aspect of the investigation is not normally considered in congress instead it is very common to see very often in research results. On the other hand, the researcher of any science, begins with the construction of an object of study, reflect on questions and research objectives, the research problem, the question of the relevance and methodological merits reflection.
This table can be very useful for students of different academic degrees and for all who want to share how it constructs its object of study.
Table 6. Secularism in Mexico: Fact or discontinuous project? Patricia Baez
Romyna Rentería. History Association. Philosophy and Letters. BUAP romynadepp@hotmail.com
The conception of a secular state in Mexico has its origins in the very formation of this as a nation-state once freed from Spain. Secularism is part of the discussion that took place in our country in the nineteenth and twentieth century caused by this, several clashes were carried out for or against this process. The phenomenon of this is, we believe, is important and necessary to think as the expressions that arise from understanding the rule of law limiting or giving opening existing religious expressions give rise to an important social and political process which manifests itself in different situations.
table
The proposal has to do with the reflection that comes through in everyday life is carried out operancia of laws, agreements and conflicts that occur in Mexico was about law and religion .
Table 7. Religion and religiosity in everyday discourse
Trejo Daniel Barragán, Universidad de Guadalajara, Alan Emmanuel Perez Barajas, University of Colima. Danbartre@gmail.com ; actante78@hotmail.com
The objective of this panel is to explore how religion and religiosity permeating the discourse of everyday life. In everyday discourse we understand the "Set of meanings that are constructed, circulated and transformed into daily communication processes" (Rodríguez Salazar 2001: 65). Religion and religiosity are not only a social level, but also appear on individual cultural practices such as retablos and ex votos. However, there is a basic place of appearance in the habitus: the speech. This table, then, is interested in knowing how, for example, a religious practice and the organization of a fiesta is influenced by a persuasive speech with social pretense, what rhetorical strategies based on the Bible Christians wield commentators praise video YouTube to fend off their attackers, to serve the arguments and narratives of those who carry a religious image, how to use the phrases and expressions with religious freight-eg, "Palo given away or God," God willing "- to justify an action or simply verbalized what resources fatalism. The table thus fits naturally into the overall theme of this meeting by not emphasizing the discourses generated by institutions and church hierarchies, such as encyclicals, sermons, homilies, official media statements ... but its adoption and incorporation by part of primary groups-family, communities, neighborhoods, in everyday life. Thus, the table helps to highlight religion and religiosity in studies of discourse analysis, thematic absent, certainly in the last academic event that specialty held in Mexico this year.
Table 8. Theologies and religious phenomenon
Yáñez Méndez Raúl (UAM-Iztapalapa), Mexico Presbyterian Theological Seminary); Ariel Corpus. Presbyterian Theological Seminary of Mexico.
deconstruyeme@hotmail.com ; arielcorpus@gmail.com
theologies have had extensive development intellectual, especially in the past twenty-first century. Theologians have gone from living on Olympus, or better yet, in the Sinai-sacral / speculative to be aware of the importance of interdisciplinary, eclectic and cultural meanings of various religious and secular traditions for its methods. It appears that the theologies have been slow to integrate, and be integrated-a theoretical cohort of Latin American cultural studies as though they have the support of a rich tradition of essays, they have been more linked to the social sciences to humanities. However, theologies have ventured into territory beyond the boundaries humanistic and have tested their presence in the contexts of social sciences.
Another aspect is the religious diversity they are not only Christian theology, but also from places epistemic and religious positions of Eastern religions or native, who have developed analytical perspectives about their own practices and beliefs. Thus the issue of native also leaves it up at a time when migration processes and structural changes in economic and socio-political make emerge the subject as agent, even after the proclaimed "end of history." Now believers can explore their own symbolic and circulate the academic tools as a form of self-understanding and global dialogue.
For the reasons stated, invites researchers from different social areas in order to explore the methodological diversity, the religious phenomenon, offers contemporary theological research, on issues such as de-institutionalization of theology in Mexico , theological research beyond the religious prerogatives, looks ethnographically informed pastoral, gender and belief practices, development of theology in Latin America and its relationship with the activities of society, the emergence of indigenous theologies, among other issues related to help shape a line of investigation required.

These figures, as the ideal and concept that is of absolute truths regarding the human spirit.

The purpose of this table is to present and discuss academic research or to account for the dynamics of "religion, media and culture." This dynamic includes: both symbolic production processes and the processes consumption, appropriation and interpretation of religion through the media. Therefore aimed to address the various ways in which some religious groups today are related to cultural industries and how they play and interact in the media sphere to offer their proposals for comfort and salvation through the media both traditional and emerging. Papers may cover: the relationship between religious institutions and the media, religious groups and emerging media, religious groups and traditional media (film, radio, television) on-line religions, new forms of mediation in the mass media, religion and publishing (traditional and on-line), analysis of production and consumption of religious media, among others.

La Geografía, science intrinsically linked to space, initially was interested in the spatial distribution of religions religious mapping distributions and descriptive sense defined as "that which is devoted to the description and interpretation of spatial relations, the landscapes and places of phenomena sacred and religious practices "(Nogué, 2006). This traditional view has been overcome by incorporating the material not in the study of spatiality, to use the territory as basis of the cultural turn in the discipline of geography and, from our perspective as refreshing in the geographical axis of the religious. In this sense, as underlined by Lilly Kong (2001) the importance examine geographic religion lies at the intersection of sacred and secular forces involved in the creation of a place. The idea of \u200b\u200bthis workshop is to discuss space-territorial dimensions of religious imagery. Emphasizing two aspects:
1) Understand the study of sacred space and territorial dimensions, both physical and symbolic. Interested in addressing the various forms of religious organization for the territory that support and produce behavior in religious spaces, meanings and spatial practices in places of worship, etc.
2) Understand the concept of imagination as part of individual subjectivity and collective. In this sense we assume that far from being a matter of interiority of the individual, are social and get in our practical life, ie our spatialized practices in our relationship with the spaces and territories and its fragments.
In this context, incorporating work to recover the spatial and territorial dimensions in its various expressions in the speeches of religious subjects in art, documents, travel accounts, photographs, personal letters, etc..

El ser humano, síntesis de materia, alma y espíritu, posee una inteligencia que lo ha llevado desde su origen a cuestionarse y a reflexionar. Ambos procesos lo conducen a dos caminos: a la consideración de su propia naturaleza and the assessment of surrounding environment. Thanks to this consolidation intellectual mankind succeeds in creating a sense of reality in which they exist. However, each interpretation that may cause people with regard to time, space in which all elements are already involved in both results in the birth of new processes and social phenomena that the human being routed to a transcendental reflection : Who am I, Where do I come?, where do I go? In the context of this discussion is taking place where religious and spiritual phenomenon that leads mankind to seek an explanation that exceeds human capacity for to be conceivable, but at the same time determine the role models that people can continue to transcend. In the dimension that offers the XIV meeting of the Research Network of religion in Mexico, the study of this social dynamic between the need for religion, as a model of moral and even ethical, and human characteristic of having a religion to us open doors to new thinking on the religious phenomenon, in turn, a better knowledge and understanding of the trend, which has any person, to transcend.
The religious phenomenon recorded expressions that acquire different forms depending on culture and historical period they are submitted. In recent times, religious discourses and practices coexist, sometimes even mix. Here observe religious expressions in other places, under different viewpoints, but always with a historical perspective.
