It discusses themes such as the cult of Baharia Puja; the cult of "Camp De Masque"; changes in popular cults; temples and associative strategies of social integration; emergence of Hanuman; ritual innovations in politics and, religious and political transformation due to globalisation to highlight the link between the reinvention of Hinduism and Mauritian capitalism.
