Daniel Ramírez – författare

This volume traces the history of Oneness Pentecostalism in North America. It maps the major ideas, arguments, periodization, and historical figures; corrects long-standing misinterpretations; and draws attention to how race and gender impacted the growth and trajectories of this movement. Oneness Pentecostalism emerged in the aftermath of the Azusa Street Revival (1906–9), baptizing its members in the name of Jesus Christ rather than the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and splintering from trinitarian Pentecostals. With its rapid growth throughout the twentieth century, especially among ethnic minorities, Oneness Pentecostalism assumed a diversity of theological, ethnic, and cultural expressions. This book reckons with the multiculturalism of the movement over the course of the twentieth century. While common interpretations tend to emphasize the restorationist impulse of Oneness Pentecostalism, leading to notions of a static, unchanging movement, the contributors to this work demonstrate that the movement is much more fluid and that the interpretation of its history and theology should be grounded in the variegated North American contexts in which Oneness Pentecostalism has taken root and dynamically developed.Groundbreaking and interdisciplinary, this volume presents diverse perspectives on a significant religious movement whose modern origins are embedded within the larger Pentecostal story. It will be welcomed by religious studies scholars and by practitioners of Oneness Pentecostalism.In addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume are Daniel Chiquete, Dara Coleby Delgado, Patricia Fortuny-Loret de Mola, Manuel Gaxiola, David A. Reed, Rosa Sailes, and Daniel Segraves.

Daniel Ramirez's history of twentieth-century Pentecostalism in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands begins in Los Angeles in 1906 with the eruption of the Azusa Street Revival. The Pentecostal phenomenon - characterized by ecstatic spiritual practices that included speaking in tongues, perceptions of miracles, interracial mingling, and new popular musical worship traditions from both sides of the border - was criticized by Christian theologians, secular media, and even governmental authorities for behaviors considered to be unorthodox and outrageous. Today, many scholars view the revival as having catalyzed the spread of Pentecostalism and consider the U.S.-Mexico borderlands as one of the most important fountainheads of a religious movement that has thrived not only in North America but worldwide. Ramirez argues that, because of the distance separating the transnational migratory circuits from domineering arbiters of religious and aesthetic orthodoxy in both the United States and Mexico, the region was fertile ground for the religious innovation by which working-class Pentecostals expanded and changed traditional options for practicing the faith. Giving special attention to individuals' and families' firsthand accounts and tracing how a vibrant religious music culture tied transnational communities together, Ramirez illuminates the interplay of migration, mobility, and musicality in Pentecostalism's global boom.

En este volumen conoceremos los significados de la pérdida y la separación a través de la escritura poética y las vivencias de Daniel Ramírez, cuyo concepto del amor inolvidable no es el que solemos imaginar con ideales, sino el del amor que consume y daña.Más que una muestra de dolor, esta recopilación es una búsqueda de la sanación y del olvido después de sufrir el abandono de una parte que conformaba un todo. A través de sus versos observamos el proceso que experimenta la voz poética al enfrentarse a sus demonios del pasado, descifrando en el camino el verdadero significado de la vida: el reencuentro con uno mismo.

Desde hace décadas, la filosofía política y social se ha visto inhibida por aquella admonición posmoderna del "fin de los grandes relatos". Mucha teoría crítica ve la luz sobre un punto u otro, pero la perspectiva global ha sido eludida por miedo a las utopías, a los sistemas, a las ideologías. Sin embargo, sin una teoría comprensiva, es difícil sobrepasar la esfera de los micro combates. Evidentemente es un desafío mayor y se puede entender la reticencia de los filósofos.El presente libro pasa por sobre aquellos temores osando una perspectiva global, una teoría completa de los cambios sociopolíticos, ecológicos, económicos y antropológicos que están en curso y los que deberían ponerse en marcha para que se pueda hablar verdaderamente de sociedad futura.En diez puntos fundamentales se perfila esta nueva filosofía política conducente a lo que el autor llama transocialismo, una visión radical de los cambios necesarios, destinada a reforzar el empoderamiento de los nuevos movimientos sociales e inspirar la generación de futuras constituciones.Su escritura clara y directa y su original estructura hacen que el lector disponga de alguna manera de tres libros o tres niveles de lectura: un manifiesto (la introducción, el manifiesto propiamente tal y la conclusión), llamado a impactar las consciencias; un ensayo (el corpus de los 10 capítulos) que moviliza la imaginación política de largo alcance; y un tratado (agregando las más 800 notas al pie de página) que hace que sea un instrumento universitario y de investigación indispensable para los desafíos de las sociedades del mañana.
