Please follow us here: https://www.facebook.com/crsconference2021. We are looking forward to seeing you there! 🤓

CEU/ELTE/Masaryk PhD Conference, 25-27 June 2020 | Center for Religious Studies Religion has served to legitimize political power, but it has also been a basis for resistance against order and authority.

The Center for Religious Studies of the Central European University has published the Call for Papers for its Fourth Annual Doctoral Conference entitled Resistance to Order and Authority in Religion. Apply to [email protected] Before March 15th 2020!

For further information, please address the student organizers Juan Manuel Rubio Arevalo, Krisztina Bodzásné Csényi-Nagy, and Jan Trtílek by e-mail at [email protected].

The Call:

Religion has served to legitimize political power, but it has also been a basis for resistance against order and authority. Be it the Maccabean revolt, Gandhi's practice of non-violence resistance, contemporary neo-pagan religions, or the counter-system movements portrayed by Mark Juergensmeyer in his 2001 book Terror in the Mind of God, religious beliefs have motivated people to reject social order that they deem as unjust, and possibly rise against it. Even in today’s secularized societies, religion has served as the ground for social movements and manifestations addressing pressing socio-economic threats such as climate change, social inequality, authoritarian governments and minority discrimination. These observations have encouraged new trends in scholarly debate,especially regarding the emergence of alternative religious ideas and rituals in modern societies. How have old and new religious convictions legitimized various resistance movements among different communities? Which causes have influenced violent mobilizations against established social order, non-violent struggle, or the establishment of alternative community frameworks? What can these movements and ideas tell us about the role that religion plays today both in secularized and nonsecularized societies? The conference invites contributions studying the conceptualization, management and instrumentalization of religious ideas and beliefs with regard to past and contemporary resistance movements.

Wishing all of the participants in the CRS Szeged PhD Conference 2019 an excellent summer ahead.
