Description
Summary:This special section of Research in the Social Scientific Study of Religion explores religious or belief identities on university campuses in different parts of the world. It examines the diversity of ways in which religious or belief identities are experienced, encountered and catered for on higher education campuses. The ten papers that follow interrogate how these identities are ‘lived’ on campus and how these are dealt with in university policy, practice, management and curricula. ‘Violence’, ‘Minoritisation’ and ‘intersectionality’ are useful theories to make sense of the common threads and disconnections across the different Higher Education contexts that feature in this special section and their geographies, politics and religion or belief identities.
