Description

Welcome to the micro-site for the Fourteenth International Conference on Religion & Spirituality in Society

 
Founded in 2011, Religion in Society Research Network explores the relationship between religion in society and the changing nature of spirituality. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
 
The Fourteenth International Conference on Religion & Spirituality in Society calls for research addressing the following annual themes and special focus:

  • 2024 Special Focus—Spaces, Movement, Time: Religions at Rest and in Movement

  • Theme 1: Religious Foundations

  • Theme 2: Religious Community and Socialization

  • Theme 3: Religious Commonalities and Differences

  • Theme 4: The Politics of Religion

 

We are interested in the following lines of investigation:   

 

  • On the sources, modes, and manifestations of religiosity.

  • On learning religious ways, spiritual ways of life, and religious institutions.

  • On variations in religious forms and the relationships between different religions.

  • On the relations of religion to the state and civil society.

 

Religion in Society Research Network also supports a book imprint and a collection of journals.
