BARGADOS, Alberto López. The faults of the text: debates about the ritual practices of european muslims. Etnográfica [online]. 2010, vol.14, n.2, pp.213-242. ISSN 0873-6561.

After revising the application of the different theories of the ritual offered by anthropology in Muslim contexts, and more specifically, the analysis of the practice of the sacrifice during the Ayd al-adha feast, the article seeks out the problems that diverse Muslim communities settled in Europe encounter in order for the sacrifice to take place and the eventual changes that subdue the ritual practice. At the same time, the article considers the controversy surrounding the Muslim practice of sacrifice in Europe as an example of a general problem about the place that the religious practices should occupy in the European public sphere.

Palavras-chave : Islam; migrations; Europe; ritual; sacrifice; public sphere.
