Abstract

ABSTRACT: This papier addresses dynamics of social interaction in rituals of religious devotion, trance and conflict in the context of cultural practices and lived experiences of Senegalese immigrants, adherents of the Mouridiyya brotherhood. The analysis seeks, in an ethnographic perspective, to problematize the warp of devotional and moral grammar from a phenomenological and interactionist approach in what I call a mourid relational world. This study try to understand the ways in which these subjects recreate meanings of attribution, connection, belonging, “being part of”, not exempt from tensions and dilemmas, in the plot of new ways of life, in contemporary urban societies.
