DESCRIPTION:Precarity, Love, and Doomsday Militarism: Evangelical activism with the police in Brazil, by Dr Rodrigo Campos, King's College London. Title: Precarity, Love, and Doomsday Militarism: Evangelical activism with the police in Brazil. Dr Rodrigo Campos King's College London., co-hosted with WiCDS Abstract: Evangelicals have an urgent message: the end of times is nearing, and you better be prepared for it. In violence-torn Brazil, precarious police officers are hearing - and increasingly accepting - the message: "More important than being a pacifier is to be pacified by the redemptive work of Jesus in the Cross". This presentation will explore the impact of Evangelical activism with the police forces and its relationship to far-right politics in Brazil and beyond. Bio: Rodrigo Campos is lecturer at the Department of International Development, King's College London. His work sits at the intersection between religion, security, and far-right politics, with a specific focus on the global dimensions of Evangelical activism within police and military institutions. Rodrigo concluded his PhD in Politics at the University of York and his thesis, The New Christian Militarism, is currently being prepared for publication with Manchester University Press. He has extensive ethnographic experience in Brazil, Western Sahara, Egypt and England. He is co-author of the book No Way to Gaza (MEMO, 2021) and directed the documentary "A Thread of Hope: Independence or War in Western Sahara".
