Religion and Education in Conversation

Maggie Webster | Seán Henry

Religion / Education

This book showcases conversations between the disciplines of theology/religious studies and education studies. Written by leading academics in each discipline, each chapter covers a key theme from the perspective of religious studies, including Buddhism, Islam, secularisation, queer theology and social justice, and is followed by a response from an education studies perspective. In staging these conversations, the book exemplifies a methodological approach where religious studies and education studies can 'meet' one another as disciplines in conversation, without at the same time 'merging'. The idea of meeting without merging is central to the book and becomes a core recommendation for how religion and education can operate in various spheres from schooling and pedagogy to research and policy. Written for researchers in both fields the book shows the generative potential of interdisciplinary scholarship.
