The symposium aims to address the emerging new faces of philosophy of religion that expand on the wider cultural issues of theorizing religion today.聽 Topics to be addressed range from how ideology critique has come to change the face of studying religion academically and whether theology and religious studies can or should, in the context of post-phenomenological debates, co-exist in the university, to whether traditional philosophy of religion, as distinct from philosophical theology and phenomenology of religion, is more properly philosophy of religious studies.
The subject matter is a pressing one.聽 Philosophy of religion is changing so rapidly that many wonder, more now than ever, in what it consists.聽 This often raises the urgent question whether philosophy of religion should persist.聽 The symposiasts offer ways in which to mitigate the issues, underlining the importance of reflexivity in the context of religion and not philosophy alone.
