Citizenship and Religious Pluralism
Following the “Citizenship and Religious Pluralism” Summer School held at the Dominican Institute for Oriental Studies (IDEO) as part of the Anawati Chair, the participants and scholars expressed keen interest in pursuing the reflections begun around the questions of citizenship, religious pluralism and living together.
This research group, affiliated with the Pluriel network, brings together all the participants of that summer school in order to give visibility to the work accomplished and to create the conditions for continued dialogue, exchange and the sharing of resources.
Its aim is to offer a structured academic space for extending these exchanges, consolidating the outcomes of the Summer School and fostering collective reflection on the contemporary challenges of citizenship in plural religious contexts.
The group also helps to maintain an active network among early-career researchers from different countries and disciplines, and to strengthen the visibility of the work produced.
