Beskrivning
This innovative volume, edited by David W. Kim and Melissa E. Lovell, explores the socio-political intersection of education with religion in modern society. The contributions in Religion in Modern Education: Conflict, Economics, and Politics cover a range of case studies including Christian education, Jewish education, Islamic and Asian religious perspectives, as well as their interaction wiith a variety of ideological and political concerns. Education can be understood as a key site for the production of future citizens, and the role of religion in the education of young people is an issue of considerable discussion and disagreement. This collection approaches the issues of religion and education from multiple disciplinary perspectives, and within varied social and geographic contexts, to improve our understanding of the diversity, complexity and importance of discussions about religion in educational contexts.

The historical relationship between religion and education has been one of the primary drivers of the creation of the modern world as we know it - and has left a complex legacy. Kim and Lovell have succeeded in curating a volume that begins to expose the nuances of this relationship as it manifests in various contexts. This is essential reading both for scholars in the field and those who may still struggle to see the relevance of religion in today’s world. Daniel Moulin, University of CambridgeThe editors have produced a distinctively rich volume on religion in modern education. With a distinguished gallery of international authors, they have yet garnered a cohesive and theoretically enlightened set of important case studies to explore their themes of religion’s ever intensified role, one that reaches far beyond the sphere of formal and public education.Liam Gearon, University of Oxford
