Transitions in Culture and Religion I: the where, whom and what of religion, race and coloniality

the focus of Culture and Religion is on work that is largely qualitative and discursive, that explores issues of gender, sexuality, and racialisation from intersecting perspectives (i.e. ‘intersectionality’), and thus also engages with methodologies and approaches that seek to challenge the balance of power and intellectual (and material) capital within the academy. For me, that involves a ‘decolonising’ approach, one that historicises and socialises both academic theories and the structures of knowledge and society they come from and are applied to. But of course there are many ways in which this work can be done.
