Addicted to Christ: Remaking Men in Puerto Rican Pentecostal Drug Ministries,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
How are spiritual power and selftransformation cultivated in street ministries? In Addicted to Christ, Helena Hansen provides an indepth analysis of Pentecostal ministries in Puerto Rico that were founded and run by selfidentified exaddicts, ministries that are also widespread in poor Black and Latino neighborhoods in the U.S. mainland. Richly ethnographic, the book harmoniously melds Hansens dual expertise in cultural anthropology and psychiatry. Through the stories of ministry converts, she examines key elements of Pentecostalism: mysticism, ascetic practice, and the idea of otherworldliness. She then reconstructs the ministries' strategies of spiritual victory over addiction: transformation techniques to build spiritual strength and authority through pain and discipline; cultivation of alternative masculinities based on male converts reclamation of domestic space; and radical rupture from a postindustrial culture of disposability. By contrasting the ministries logic of addiction with that of biomedicine, Hansen rethinks roads to recovery, discovering unexpected convergences with biomedicine while revealing the allure of street corner ministries.
