Coming Conferences

 

Symposium on Religion and Politics
Calvin College
Grand Rapids, Michigan
April 29 - May 1, 2010

The Henry Institute for the Study of Christianity and Politics at Calvin College will sponsor the fourth biennial conference on the relationship between religion and politics on April 29 - May 1, 2010, in Calvin's Prince Conference Center. This symposium is held in the spring of even numbered years.

The purpose of this conference, and future such conferences, is to provide a distinct opportunity for scholars working in this field of study to come together in order to present papers related to their current research, foster personal and professional networks, facilitate joint research endeavors, and learn about research opportunities in the field.

Registration information and a formal Call for Papers will be released in the fall of 2009. The conference is open to both scholars and graduate students across different disciplines of study (e.g., political scientists, sociologists, historians). Those interested in presenting a paper on any aspect of the relationship between religion and politics (whether it be in terms of political philosophy, public policy, political history, comparative politics, electoral politics, constitutional law, or the sociology of religion) should check back with this website in late 2009, or contact:
