Summary
Alto Paraíso de Goiás, home to the mystical and ecologically rich Chapada dos Veadeiros, exemplifies the 're-enchantment of the world' through its unique blend of spiritual and natural attractions. The study reveals how the region transitioned from early pioneer settlements to becoming a magnet for esoteric groups post-Brasília's construction, reflecting postmodern shifts in religiosity toward pluralism and dis-institutionalization. Methodologically, it integrates historical analysis with theoretical frameworks on mysticism, offering insights into the socio-cultural dynamics shaping this UNESCO-listed site.
