International Society for the Sociology of Religion 30th Conference in
Santiago de Compostela (Spain), 27-31 July 2009

The Challenges Of Religious Pluralism

http://soc.kuleuven.be/ceso/sisr/eng/conference/index.htm

Religious diversity is a constant feature of human societies. When the
very existence and the understanding of this diversity become the
subject of contestation, as has been the case in contemporary societies,
we can speak of the challenges of religious pluralism. The [2009
conference of the ISSR] seeks to contribute to the sociological analysis
of religious pluralism and its common understandings. The conference
will include a wide range of possible approaches and will pay particular
attention to both the ways in which religion adapts to the context of
religious pluralism and to the ways in which contemporary societies
respond.
