Religion and Education

Aims & Scope

Religion & Education is a journal of analysis and comment with the purpose of advancing public understanding and dialogue on issues at the intersections of religion and education.

These issues emerge in various venues; manuscripts are invited from work in any such arena: public or private education at elementary, secondary, or higher education institutions; non-school or community organizations and settings; and formal or informal organizations or groups with religion or spirituality as an integral part of their work.

Articles are invited from diverse methodological approaches and theoretical and ideological perspectives.

Some articles are solicited, but unsolicited articles are encouraged.

Unsolicited manuscripts are put through a peer review process.

Opinions expressed by contributors do not necessarily reflect those of the editors or publisher.

This journal does not address the work of formal religious institutions including churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples.

Rather, it focuses on the beliefs and values arising from all traditions as they come into contact with educational work in the public square.
