We propose that this initiative is inserted in the recent feminist approaches about care, the need for personal deconstruction and the formation of an affective community among women. Based on a qualitative methodology, the video art of the work as the interviews with the participants in the project are analyzed. The conclusions suggest that the symbolic efficacy of the scenic proposal resides in its congruence with feminist stakes and in the representation of a feminine ethos built collectively during the creation process.","PeriodicalId":40731,"journal":{"name":"Torre del Virrey-Revista de Estudios Culturales","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87979445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aim to understand how emotions work in the path to veganism. We analyzed biographic interviews, specifically stories about catalytic experiences and moments of contact with animals during childhood. In both kinds of experiences, feelings of fear, disgust and love are intertwined and are driving force behind distancing, drawing closer, identification and alterization processes that shapes the lives and social relations of the participants. We claim that catalytic experiences are entanglements of emotion, cognition and sensation where self awareness and a quest for congruence occur. We also claim that the path to veganism is made of contacts and impressions that leave traces on the bodies and resonate in the trajectories.","PeriodicalId":40731,"journal":{"name":"Torre del Virrey-Revista de Estudios Culturales","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75309111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the research was to reveal the trends of continuity, rupture and emergence of the contents of the associative subdimension of the cultural identity of young people from Havana. The study was carried out in a context marked by the economic crisis that Cuba is going through, which leaves its mark on the experiences of young people and on the configuration of their cultural identity. The methodology was adjusted to the mixed design of concurrent triangulation. As result, it stands out that all the indicators of the associative sub-dimension evoked material deficiencies and limitations to deploy healthy recreational practices, sometimes disrupting traditional forms of recreation for youth; with the same negative impact on access to food.","PeriodicalId":40731,"journal":{"name":"Torre del Virrey-Revista de Estudios Culturales","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82882121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
