Abstract

The Costa Rican State has maintained its Catholic denominational character for 200 years. With the pluralization of the religious field and the advance in secularization, religious and cultural tensions have emerged within society. I analyze the dramatic outbreak of these tensions within the political field during the 2018 electoral process, as well as their evolution in the first three years of the Carlos Alvarado Quesada administration.
