Resumo: The aim of this paper was to identify the impact of religion on consumer choices, seeking to understand its influence of the meaning assigned consumer on the construction of individual and collective identity of such young. We limit the catholic consumption culture to products and activities for religious use, such as retreats, ritual objects, symbolic objects and instruction objects, restricting the analysis and avoiding epistemological deadlocks. We used the ethnographic method of participant observation in a Catholic retreat dedicated to the practice of the Spiritual Exercises developed by St. Ignatius, founded the religious order Society of Jesus, and also we conducted in-depth interviews with event organizers and participants. The results indicate four main trends related: symbolism and meaning, construction and reinforcement of identity, not consumption; seeking interaction. The study contributes to the existing knowledge regarding the relationship between consumer behavior and religious practices, besides to opening new research perspectives.

Limitou-se a cultura de consumo católico a bens e atividades especificamente produzidos ou desenvolvidos para o consumo religioso, tais como retiros espirituais, objetos ritualísticos, objetos simbólicos e objetos de instrução, restringindo-se a análise e evitando impasses do ponto de vista epistemológico. Optou-se pelo método etnográfico da observação participante em retiro espiritual dedicado a prática dos Exercícios Espirituais desenvolvido por Santo Inácio, combinado com entrevistas em profundidade com os organizadores do evento e com alguns participantes. Os resultados apontam para quatro tendências principais identificadas: simbolismo e significado; construção e reforço da identidade; não consumo; e busca de interação. A pesquisa contribui para o conhecimento sobre as relações entre consumo e práticas religiosas, além de abrir novas perspectivas de pesquisa.Universidade Federal de Pernambuco2019-11-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/octet-streamapplication/xmlhttps://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/cbr/article/view/24203010.51359/2526-7884.2019.242030CBR - Consumer Behavior Review; Vol. 3 No. 2 (2019): july-december; 99-119CBR - Consumer Behavior Review; v. 3 n. 2 (2019): julho-dezembro; 99-1192526-7884reponame:Consumer Behavior Reviewinstname:Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE)instacron:UFPEporhttps://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/cbr/article/view/242030/33872https://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/cbr/article/view/242030/34604https://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/cbr/article/view/242030/34605https://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/cbr/article/view/242030/34606Copyright (c) 2019 CBR - Consumer Behavior Reviewinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAraujo, Fábio Francisco deTurano, Lucas MartinsVieira, Fabrício Correia2023-05-26T02:04:59Zoai:oai.periodicos.ufpe.br:article/242030Revistahttps://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/cbrPUBhttps://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/cbr/oaicbr@ufpe.br||periodicos.ufpe@ufpe.br2526-78842526-7884opendoar:2023-05-26T02:04:59Consumer Behavior Review - Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE)false
