The CRSA’s Academic Journal of Religious Studies seeks to showcase the highest-caliber work of Concordia students in the field of religious studies. In accordance with Concordia’s Department of Religion, we believe that:
The academic study of religion is a multi-disciplinary enterprise. It involves the historical examination of religious movements, the literary analyses of their literatures, philosophical reflections on beliefs and teachings, the social scientific investigations of their rituals, practices, texts, and institutions, the psychological study of their participants and ethical inquiries regarding both their moral writings and social roles.
Thus, we are engaged in creating a journal that facilitates the interdisciplinary study of religion, welcoming papers from different disciplines, approaches, and theoretical frameworks.
