PANEL: Whose Future? Religious and Technoscientific Imaginaries in Contest Call for Submissions open until 25 April, 2026 Notification of Acceptance no later than May 15, 2026 4S 2026 Conference: October 7-10, 2026   Visions of the future are never neutral. They encode assumptions about what is desirable, who is authorized to imagine, and which forms of knowledge are deemed capable of producing credible futures.

Call for Papers - PCA 2024 March 27-30, 2024 Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile   The field of science and religion, while relatively new as an identifiable field of study, has been growing fast in methodological sophistication and scope over the past thirty years.
