Resumen
El presente estudio se desarrolló bajo el enfoque cualitativo de tipo descriptivo y
diseño fenomenológico. Se utilizó a ocho personas para analizar los rituales
sobre la muerte, la percepción sobre la Iglesia y el Estado, y las representaciones
sociales de los rituales tras los fallecimientos ocurridos durante la pandemia de
COVID-19. Se encontró que la misma ha impactado significativamente en los
rituales funerarios y el proceso de duelo, especialmente en los adultos mayores.
Las restricciones de bioseguridad dictaminadas por el Gobierno alteraron las
prácticas tradicionales de despedida, limitando los entierros y velorios. Tanto la
Iglesia como el Estado han desempeñado roles esenciales en brindar apoyo a
los ciudadanos. La Iglesia adaptó sus enfoques con servicios en línea y funerales
virtuales, ofreciendo apoyo emocional y espiritual. El Estado se ha centrado en
la salud pública, proporcionando atención médica y regulando actividades. A
pesar de sus esfuerzos, las deficiencias en la comunicación y ejecución
plantearon interrogantes sobre la eficacia del Estado. En conjunto, estas
transformaciones han llevado a una experiencia emocional y psicológica
compleja para los deudos, alterando la forma en que enfrentaron la pérdida y el
duelo en medio de adaptaciones y limitaciones.
The present study was conducted within a qualitative descriptive framework and a phenomenological design. Eight individuals were utilized to analyze death rituals, perceptions of the church and state, and social representations of rituals following deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was found that the pandemic has significantly impacted funeral rituals and the grieving process, particularly among older adults. Biosecurity restrictions from the Government have altered traditional farewell practices, leading to limitations on burials and vigils. Both the Church and the State have played crucial roles in providing support to the people. The Church has adapted its approaches through online services and virtual funerals, offering emotional and spiritual support. The State has focused on public health, providing medical care and regulating activities. Despite their efforts, shortcomings in communication and execution have raised questions about the effectiveness of the State. Collectively, these transformations have resulted in a complex emotional and psychological experience for mourners, reshaping how they cope with loss and grief amidst adaptations and limitations.
