Dear Scholars, *We are happy to announce that the 4th Israeli Conference for the Study of Contemporary Spiritualities (ICSCS) will be held this year at the University of Haifa (Isreal) on Tuesday, March 20th, 2012. * You can find the CFP for the conference, as well as the lecture / Symposium proposal forms, at the following link: http://spirituality.haifa.ac.il/4th_conf/forms.html The CFP describes this year's conference's *central theme* - The therapeutic/psychological discourse within contemporary spiritualities. *Nonetheless, this theme does not in any way limit all other research topics, and the conference will be open to all research fields within the study of contemporary spiritualities.* This year ICSCS becomes *international*, and a new international advisory board was founded alongside the conference's academic committee. *One of the Keynote lectures will be given by Prof. Paul Heelas on Spiritual Humanism. * Pre-conference and/or post-conference *workshops* will be offered. More information on these will follow. *We invite researchers as well as graduate students from all disciplines to present papers and symposia in the study of contemporary spiritualities, as detailed in the CFP attached to this email. * Please forward to colleagues and other relevant mailing lists. Kind Regards, Prof. Ofra Mayseless and Dr. Marianna Ruah-Midbar. Conference's committee chairpersons
