Religion can be addressed as diversity category, organizing groups, power and knowledge within a society. At the same time, bodily and social differences interact with religious contexts. By linking those topics, the conference contributes to a better understanding of social differences and inequalities caused or addressed by religions in a globalized world.

In short: How does religion structure diversity, and how does diversity structure religion(s)?

The conference is organised by the Department for the Study of Religions, University of Lucerne (Switzerland), in cooperation with the Swiss Association for the Study of Religions (SGR-SSSR), the department for cultural studies, University of Lucerne, the department of History, Federal University of Paraná (Brazil) and the Study of Religions, Philipps University Marburg (Germany).
