<\/span><\/div>\n
The Society for the Scientific Study of Religion<\/a><\/i> was founded in 1949 by scholars in religion and social science. Its purpose is to stimulate and communicate significant scientific research on religious institutions and religious experience. Scholars from all fields of study who are interested in the scientific exploration of religion are invited to join the Society<\/i>. Membership in the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion<\/i> gives scholars the opportunity to share their research and ideas with other scholars.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Our theme for the 2014 conference is \u201cBuilding Bridges\u201d between all those interested in the study of religion. This includes any disciplines that focus upon the study of religion as well as scholars from the widest possible geographical and cultural areas. Our intent is to build bridges between disciplines and cultures that have become isolated and communicate only among themselves and not to others with similar interests but from different perspectives. Suggestions for contributions include:<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
