Section Information for Spring 2023
Providing an important study for understanding today’s headlines and life’s Big Questions, "Religion and Society" surveys the world’s major religious traditions and introduces scholarly methods for the study of religion from an interdisciplinary perspective, with a sociological bent. It explores the nature of religious beliefs, rituals, and institutions, both historically and in the contemporary context. Of particular interest will be the way in which faith traditions form and change over time as they become increasingly cosmopolitan, and the relationship between those traditions and daily life, political and social conflicts, ethics, and the globalization of culture and society.
