We are devoted to the study of religion in all of its appearances
One cannot make sense of the world without accounting for and, inevitably, engaging with religion. The gods, so it seems, haven’t simply reacted to the attempts to remove them in modern times with silence. In different places in the world, religion has struck back, by people continuing to make sense of their lives through religion or spirituality, by religious incursions into public spheres, in contestations over what it means to be free and equal, and in various conflicts.
We are devoted to the study of religion in all of its appearances: its ideas and material forms, historical peculiarities, ethical and political challenges, and in relation to pressing societal concerns such as religious and non-religious freedom, gender equality, racism, discrimination, and decolonisation.
