Globalization, Religions, and the SecularHow does globalization intersect with the resurgence of public religion? To what extent do we live in a post-seclar world? The Globalization, Religions, and the Secular program brings together leading scholars across disciplines to explore different dimensions of these questions across states, regions, and religious communities. |

RELATED PROJECTS
Anthropology of Religion and Gender Lecture SeriesCo-sponsored by the Anthropology Department and the Berkley Center, this lecture series will feature well-known anthropologists of religion, gender, and feminist theory over the course of the 2009/10 academic year. The talks will be based on fieldwork conducted in a range of ethnographic settings including Africa, the Middle East, and the United States. The series is intended to bring together anthropological work on religion and more recent work in the discipline on gender, sexuality and feminist theory to consider the complex relationship between religion and gender in the contemporary era.
Anthropology of Religion and the Economy Lecture Series
During the 2008/09 academic year, the Berkley Center and the Department of Anthropology arranged a series of talks by well-known anthropologists of religion, culture, and political economy. The talks, based on fieldwork conducted in a range of ethnographic settings in Africa, India, Japan, and the United States, brought together anthropological work on religion and more recent work in the discipline on money, markets, and finance to consider the complex relationship between the economy and religion in the contemporary era.
Religious and Political Identities: The Mediterranean since 1492
The Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs at Georgetown University and the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute are engaged in a joint research project that rethinks the relationship between religion, nation, and state throughout the Mediterranean basin from early modernity to the present. A series of workshops, to culminate in a conference and major book project, is exploring the interaction of Eastern and Latin Christianity, Islam, and Judaism -- with one another and with states and societies across the region.
