The purpose of this paper is to discuss the forms of yoga’s production-consumption-identity and cultural regulation within the framework of Cultural Studies. This paper is based on the findings of an Evidence Map on Yoga and corroborates the fact that yoga is being consumed as a cultural symbol and has mushroomed into a heterogeneous and deregulated market, in which many competing organizations promote different yoga styles and levels of certifications. Yoga has become entangled with economic and political logics and the commodification/branding process has transformed it from an Asian soul-searching practice into an industry. 2022 artículo científico 0325-6669 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=14874119005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/148/14874119005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/148/14874119005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/148/14874119005/14874119005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/148/14874119005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=148 Scripta Ethnologica application/pdf Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) Scripta Ethnologica (Argentina) Num.2 Vol.44
