Abstract
In this work I describe and analyze Argentine folklore dance contests. By applying ritualization theory, I show how the deployed strategies constitute a hierarchical system. Participation in such a system is experienced by the dancers as redemptive hegemony.
The data making methodology was that of the ethnographic fieldwork, which I intermittently made during two years.
