Call for Papers on Anthropology and Religion

The deadline has passed
ANTHROPOLOGICA

On behalf of ANTHROPOLOGICA, a peer-reviewed Journal from the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP), we announce our latest Call for Papers on Anthropology and Religion.

This thematic dossier is titled: “Religion and spiritualities in the modern world: thematic and disciplinary intersections”, edited by José Manuel Sánchez, Véronique Lecaros and Carlos Piccone Camere (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú).

We welcome submissions of scholarly articles employing a socio-anthropological and interdisciplinary approach. Contributions may focus on the complex and dynamic religious landscape of Latin America, major transformations in contemporary religion, or the diversification and polarization of a spiritual marketplace. These phenomena are to be considered within the broader context of social, cultural, political, and economic transformations, reflecting the quest for meaning in modern societies.

This issue will prioritize contributions related to the following themes:

  • New forms of religious and spiritual production and consumption in urban contexts.
  • Religion and urban popular culture.
  • Ancestral religions, spiritual tourism, and pilgrimages.
  • Religion, spirituality, and youth sectors.
  • Religion, culture, and politics.
  • Resignification of religious identities: Catholicism, Evangelicalism, and non-affiliation.
  • Shamanism, folk healing, and new urban and cyberspace expressions.
  • Religious symbolism, social surveillance, and art.

Submissions: anthropo(at)pucp.edu.pe or through this link: https://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/anthropologica/submission/wizard
