Sumario:[EN] Religious conflicts, of various kinds, were frequent in the Late Roman and Post-Roman world. However, their significance and endurance varied much depending on a number of factors. This paper compares two such controversies, Priscilianism in Iberia and Pelagianism in Britain, in connection to the scale and strength of the encompasing ecclesiastical structures in each case. The presence of a large-scale, well structured institutional Church is marked out as crucial both not only for the definition, "labelling" and prosecution of the dissidents, but even for their recognition as such. Once the "label" is created, it is often re-used to denigrate and de-legitimize other, potentially unrelated forms of dissent.
