Established in 1988, the Center
for the Study of Religion and Society is dedicated
to encouraging scholarly activity in the form of research,
publication, conferences, seminars, symposia, fora, and lectures.
Its primary audience is the academic community, but its scholarship
is available to all who seek it.
Although Creighton University is a Jesuit Catholic university, the Center is not limited to any particular faith, time, or place. It encourages the study of all religious groups and beliefs among the various people of the world, past and present, in order to encompass the diversity of interest in the field and to encourage the widest possible comparative perspective. Because the great questions of life do not fit neatly into single disciplines, the Center has chosen to be cross-disciplinary and to include scholars from all academic disciplines by whom greater insights may be gained into the myriad of topics which relate to the study of religion and society.

The Journal of Religion & Society
has been established to promote the cross-disciplinary study
of religion and its diverse social dimensions through the
publication of research articles, essays and opinions, review
articles, and book reviews.
The Journal of Religion & Society is a refereed academic journal dedicated to the publication of scholarly research in religion and its diverse social dimensions. All submissions to the journal will be subject to blind peer review.
As an electronic journal taking full advantage of the World Wide Web, the Journal of Religion & Society will incorporate photos, graphics, and other media where appropriate in its articles. Moreover, the journal will publish material on an ongoing rather than a periodic basis, eliminating any backlog between acceptance and publication, and also accelerating the publication of scholarly research.
Each volume of the journal will be limited to material published within a given calendar year.
