RELIGION is an internationally recognized peer-reviewed journal, publishing original scholarly research in the
comparative and interdisciplinary study of religion. It is published four times annually: two regular issues; and two special issues
(or forums) on focused topics, generally under the direction of guest editors. RELIGION is committed to the publication of significant,
novel research, review symposia and responses, and survey articles of specific fields and national contributions to scholarship. In addition,
the journal includes book reviews and discussions of important venues for the publication of scholarly work in the study of religion.
RELIGION has European and North-American editors, a multi-national Editorial Board, and is committed to publishing work from scholars
of religion around the globe, including occasional translations of important papers. Papers are made available online on ScienceDirect
before the printed versions are published.
RELIGION accepts papers on all religious studies topics, including the history, literature,
thought, practice, material culture, and institutions of particular religious traditions and communities from a variety of perspectives
such as social scientific, cultural, cognitive, ethnographic, economic, ecological, and geographic (but excluding theology or philosophy
of religion).
RELIGION expects that authors frame their research questions and present their results in terms of relevant theoretical
or methodological discussions. Purely descriptive papers are not generally accepted for publication. Papers on theory and methodology
are encouraged. All publications in RELIGION are intended to be of interest to a wide audience of academic scholars of religion; submitted
work should be presented in a manner intelligible to more than specialists.
