Special issue, 'The New Visibility of Religion and its Impact'

The journal Religions has announced a special issue to address the theme of the 'new visibility of religion'. The issue will be edited by Dr Michael Hoelzl, who originally coined the phrase with Prof Graham Ward in 2008.

The issue will consider what implications the new visibility of religion, as a challenge to conventional secularisation theory, has had for the political, technological, and cultural spheres. Dr Hoelzl, who is based at the University of Manchester and is an affiliate of the LTI, will work with Dr Scott Midson (LTI, University of Manchester) and Dr Andrew Crome (Manchester Metropolitan University) in developing the special issue.

Further details can be found on the Religions website. The deadline for submissions is 21 March 2020.
