Narcotráfico, drogas ilícitas y sustitución: la encrucijada del Acuerdo de Paz Uno de los grandes retos que tiene Colombia es lograr darle una solución a la problemática de las drogas ilícitas, debido al aumento de los cultivos de coca, marihuana y al consumo interno, aspectos que han incidido en la salud, la connivencia ciudadana y la seguridad. El referente del narcotráfico sin duda genera una gran cantidad de problemas que el país no ha podido superar y que cada día toman mayor fuerza dados los efectos directos y colaterales complejos que hoy guardan relación con la llamada “guerra reciclada y paz imperfecta”, afianzados en la continuidad del ELN, las disidencias de las FARC, las bandas criminales, la delincuencia común y los carteles nacionales y extranjeros de drogas que copan los espacios territoriales. En el Acuerdo de Paz, firmado entre el gobierno anterior y las FARC1 , que incluye en 10 de las 310 páginas el asunto del narcotráfico, es uno de los de mayor incidencia nacional e internacional, sin embargo hoy la situación es caótica, grave e incierta. Las dificultades surgen no solo de la encrucijada de 350 mil familias dedicadas a los cultivos ilícitos en el sur del país para acogerse a los ofrecimientos financieros del Estado y la sustitución voluntaria, sino también a la llegada de narcotraficantes mexicanos y de naciones vecinas; factores que han incidido en el crimen de líderes sociales que en total son 462 desde el 2016 hasta la fecha, según datos de la Defensoría del Pueblo. 1 24 de noviembre del 2016. 7 Si bien el acuerdo incluye el Programa Nacional Integral de Sustitución de Cultivos de Uso Ilícito –PNIS–, compuesto por planes integrales comunitarios y municipales de sustitución y desarrollo alternativo, de atención inmediata, y un componente familiar y comunitario, comenzar su implementación no ha sido fácil dadas las variables sociales, financieras y de seguridad que afectan este punto del acuerdo: El plan tiene como principios la construcción conjunta, participativa y concertada de regiones dedicadas a los cultivos ilícitos, el respeto y aplicación de los principios y las normas del Estado Social de Derecho y la convivencia ciudadana, la Integración a la Reforma Rural Integral, el enfoque diferencial, de género, étnico y territorial de acuerdo, con las condiciones de cada territorio y la sustitución voluntaria. (Oficina del Alto Comisionado para la Paz, 2016, p. 103) A medida que se avanza, se hacen evidentes las barreras y obstáculos para aplicar el desempeño real del programa, la hoja de ruta y los compromisos estatales adquiridos con las comunidades y regiones. Hay rezagos sistemáticos en el desarrollo de esos componentes, lo que pone en juego lo pactado entre el Estado y la insurgencia de las FARC, ahora en la legalidad. No hay que desconocer que el cultivo, la producción y comercialización de las drogas ilícitas financiaron y alimentaron el conflicto interno, que instituciones, regionales y nacional han sido permeadas por la corrupción

  • The New Age Embraces Shamanism
    CHRISTIAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE P.O. Box 8500, Charlotte, NC 28271 Article: DS836 THE NEW AGE EMBRACES SHAMANISM This article first appeared in the Christian Research Journal, volume 25, number 4 (2003) as a companion to the feature article Shamanism: Eden or Evil? by Mark Andrew Ritchie. For further information or to subscribe to the Christian Research Journal go to: http://www.equip.org A few decades ago, “shamanism” was a word known mainly by anthropologists. As the New Age movement grew in the West, however, many others were introduced to and embraced spiritual practices drawn from several primitive cultures such as Native American, various Latin American, Hawaiian, Eskimo, and other indigenous groups. These practices, which emphasized trance and ecstatic states, spirit contact, animal spirits, out-of-body experiences, and nontraditional healing1 were harmonious with the budding New Age beliefs that emphasized the earth, transcendence through drugs, and multileveled realities. Neoshamanism thus was born. Two of the most influential people in the rise of neoshamanism were Carlos Castaneda and Lynn Andrews, who claimed to have been initiated into shamanism by native teachers. Castaneda claimed to have been a student of Yaqui Indian Don Juan Matus, while Lynn Andrews claimed to have studied under women teachers such as Agnes Whistling Elk and Ruby Plenty Chiefs. Castaneda’s many books on shamanism, including his influential and controversial The Teachings of Don Juan published in 1968, as well as Andrews’s many books since 1981, have sold quite well. Castaneda, an anthropology student in 1960 who set out to research the medicinal properties of plants, enlisted the help of shaman-sorcerer Don Juan.2 Thus began Castaneda’s journey into the world of sorcery, where dreams and visions became the prime reality — a spiritual trip that included hallucinogens, which was one of the touchstones of “spiritual awakening” in the 1960s and 1970s.

  • Revived Shamanism in the Social Life of Russia
    http://dx.doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2015.62.kharitonova REVIVED SHAMANISM IN THE SOCIAL LIFE OF RUSSIA Valentina Kharitonova Abstract: The article reviews various modern practices associated with the con- cept of revived shamanism. Many of them have an indirect relation to actual sha- manism and its revival. However, their adepts can consider themselves followers of traditional shamanism. The author reviews several variants of shamanic activ- ity widely represented in modern Russia, such as: urban shamanism, experiential shamanism, neoshamanism, and also (neo)shamanism or shamanism. They are discussed, taking into account their religious, socio-political, cultural, healing, scientific, ethno-tourist, and economic (business) contexts. The study shows how, depending on various realities of modern life, the activity of specific individuals who identify themselves as shamans, as well as shamanic organisations (legally regarded as religious), changes. Keywords: confession, core shamanism, neoshamanism, religion, revival of sha- manism in Russia, shamanism, shamanistic religious organisation, traditional healing, urban shamanism INTRODUCTION When analysing the current state of shamanism in Russia, we have to review quite a wide range of phenomena, which to some extent are included in the complex of what is conventionally referred to as revived shamanism. Many of those phenomena have an indirect relationship particularly to shamanism and its revival. However, their adepts appeal to different traditional variants of shamanism in support of their practices. In this situation the western col- leagues would rather use the term ‘neoshamanism’ – a vague term with many interpretations, allowing researchers and adepts/followers to relate it either to New Age, or to shamanism itself, which has been modernised today (see, e.g., Townsend 2004: 49–56; Winkelman 2004: 187–191).

  • Mytho-Historical Narratives and Identity-Discourse in Hungarian
    Social Constructions of the Native Faith: Mytho-historical Narratives and Identity-discourse in Hungarian Neo- paganism by Ádám Kolozsi Submitted to Central European University Nationalism Studies Program In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Advisor: Professor András Kovács CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 Abstract This thesis provides a detailed examination of the historical roots and national ideologies of contemporary Hungarian native faith movements, focusing specifically on the narrative boundary-setting mechanisms. In my historical research, based on the analysis of primary resources, I am looking for the roots of neo-pagan concepts in Hungary. In the narrative analysis of contemporary neo-pagan discourses, I examine the ethnic myths, historical memories, national ideologies and symbolic boundary-setting mechanisms. The thesis shows that native-faith myths (re)define actual group boundaries and reinforce current group identifications. In this way, neo-pagan nationalism contributes to the reformulation of national ideologies, national sentiments and „groupist‟ ideas. I argue that the public success of native faith ideas is explicable by their fitting to broader group beliefs of contemporary ethno-nationalism.

I wish to thank for Mr. Scott Simpson from the Jagellonian University and Viola Teisenhoffer (‗from the Japanese Garden‘) for their suggestions and for the inspiring discussions about international neo-paganism.

  • Shamanism and the Internet
    Shamanism and the Internet Aado Lintrop In searching for articles about shamanism on the Internet, it soon becomes evident that links attached to the subject are largely connected to keywords such as pagans, paganism, wicca, magick, newage, techno, psychedelics, drugs, rave, ecstasy, etc. Readers can also come across prophetic writings similar to the following: The shaman seers of the Fourth World generally agree that those who tenaciously cling to the past will fall into mass insanity. The serpent power of the Aquarian Age is upon us. The Kundalini of Gaia is about to awaken. No one can avoid being affected. Most human beings may go out of their minds; others will go beyond mind. (John Hogue. Neuroshaman. http://www.reocities.com/researchtriangle/5657/) He or she might also read announcements like the following: “Shamanic ecstasy is the real “Old Time Religion,” of which modern churches are but pallid evocations. Shamanic, vision- ary ecstasy, the mysterium tremendum, the unio mystica, the eternally delightful experience of the universe as energy, is a sine qua non of religion, it is what religion is for! There is no need for faith, it is the ecstatic experience itself that gives one faith in the intrinsic unity and integrity of the universe, in ourselves as integral parts of the whole; that reveals to us the sublime majesty of our universe, and the fluctuant, scintillant, alchemical miracle that is quotidian consciousness. Any religion that requires faith and gives none, that defends against religious experiences, that promulgates the bizarre superstition that humankind is in some way separate, divorced Shamanism and the Internet 121 from the rest of creation, that heals not the gaping wound between Body and Soul, but would tear them asunder..

  • The Making of Sámi Religion in Contemporary Society
    religions Editorial Introduction: The Making of Sámi Religion in Contemporary Society Trude Fonneland 1,* and Tiina Äikäs 2,* 1 The Arctic University Museum of Norway and Academy of Arts (UMAK), UiT-The Arctic University of Norway, P.O. Box 6050, N-9037 Langnes Tromsø, Norway 2 Research Unit of History, Culture and Communications, University of Oulu, FI-90014 Oulu, Finland * Correspondence: [email protected] (T.F.); tiina.aikas@oulu.fi (T.Ä.) Received: 30 June 2020; Accepted: 19 October 2020; Published: 23 October 2020 Abstract: This Special Issue of Religions approaches “Sámi religion” from a long-term perspective seeing both the past religious practices and contemporary religious expressions as aspects of the same phenomena. This does not refer, however, to a focus on continuity or to a static or uniform understanding of Sámi religion. Sámi religion is an ambiguous concept that has to be understood as a pluralistic phenomenon consisting of multiple applications and associations and widely differing interpretations, and that highlights the complexities of processes of religion-making. In a historical perspective and in many contemporary contexts (such as museum displays, media stories, as well as educational programs) the term Sámi religion is mostly used as a reference to Sámi pre-Christian religious practices, to Laestadianism, a Lutheran revival movement that spread among the Sámi during the 19th Century, and last but not least to shamanism. In this issue, we particularly aim to look into contemporary contexts where Sámi religion is expressed, consumed, and promoted. We ask what role it plays in identity politics and heritagization processes, and how different actors connect with distant local religious pasts—in other words, in which contexts is Sámi religion activated, by whom, and for what? 1.

  • The Globalization of Ayahuasca Shamanism and the Erasure of Indigenous Shamanism Evgenia Fotiou Kent State University, [email protected] Abstract
    The Globalization of Ayahuasca Shamanism and the Erasure of Indigenous Shamanism evgenia fotiou Kent State University, [email protected] abstract Ayahuasca is a hallucinogenic plant mixture used in a ceremonial context throughout western Amazonia, and its use has expanded globally in recent decades. As part of this expansion, ayahuasca has become popular among westerners who travel to the Peruvian Amazon in increasing numbers to experience its reportedly healing and transformative effects. Drawing from ethnographic fieldwork in and around the area of Iquitos, Peru, the epicenter of ayahuasca tourism, this paper focuses on some of the problematic aspects of western engagement with indigenous spiritual traditions. This engagement is usually based on idealized and romanticized notions of indigenous shamanism and an inability to digest its less palatable aspects, such as sorcery. Through ethnographic examples and ethnohistorical evidence, I show that the romanticization indigenous peoples is not benign. In fact, this one-sided romantic image hides the complexity of indigenous peoples’ situations by erasing the injustices that they have experienced and continue to experience. I propose a more holistic approach to ayahuasca shamanism that views indigenous peoples not living in a fictitious harmony with nature but as people embedded in larger struggles and facing important challenges not the least of which is the recent commercialization of indigenous spirituality. keywords: Ayahuasca, Shamanism, cultural appropriation, Amazonia, indigenous peoples Shamanism is crucially a made-up, modern, western category, an artful reification of disparate practices, snatches of folklore and overarching folklorizations, residues of long-established myths intermingled with the Anthropology of Consciousness, Vol. 27, Issue 2, pp.

  • Aleister Crowley
    Aleister Crowley From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Aleister Crowley Aleister Crowley in ceremonial garb. Edward Alexander Crowley 12 October 1875 Born Royal Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England 1 December 1947 (aged 72) Died Hastings, East Sussex, England Occupation Occultist, poet, novelist. Spouse Rose Edith Kelly Edward Crowley, Emily Bertha Parents Crowley (neé Bishop) Aleister Crowley (/ˈkroʊli/ KROH-lee; 12 October 1875–1 December 1947), born Edward Alexander Crowley, and also known as both Frater Perdurabo and The Great Beast 666, was an English occultist, mystic, ceremonial magician, poet and mountaineer, who was responsible for founding the religious philosophy of Thelema. In his role as the founder of the Thelemite philosophy, he came to see himself as the prophet who was entrusted with informing humanity that it was entering the new Aeon of Horus in the early 20th century. Born into a wealthy upper-class family, as a young man he became an influential member of the esoteric Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn after befriending the order's leader, Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers. Subsequently believing that he was being contacted by his Holy Guardian Angel, an entity known as Aiwass, while staying in Egypt in 1904, he "received" a text known as The Book of the Law from what he believed was a divine source, and around which he would come to develop his new philosophy of Thelema. He would go on to found his own occult society, the A∴A∴ and eventually rose to become a leader of Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.), before founding a religious commune in Cefalù known as the Abbey of Thelema, which he led from 1920 through till 1923.
