Call for Proposals

This Consultation brings together scholars treating different time periods, geographical regions, and traditions in working to strengthen our field’s role in the study of empire, colonialism, and postcolonialism. This year, we solicit individual and panel proposals addressing questions of empire, religion, and processes of community delineation/integration. As geographic spaces that have encompassed overlapping imperial domains and polities, the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean regions provide particularly fertile ground for the Consultation’s emphasis on historical and geographical comparative study.

Mission

This Consultation presents an opportunity for scholars in various subfields of religious studies to explore a topic whose relevance cuts across specializations. We bring together scholars treating different time periods, geographical regions, and traditions in working to strengthen our field’s role in the study of empire, colonialism, and postcolonialism.
