SPECIAL TOPICS: MORMON STUDIES<\/strong><\/p>\n

Description of the goals and rationale:<\/p>\n

This special topic of Mormon Studies promotes the exploration of a wide range of topics relating to Mormonism. This section seeks to provide scholarly inquiry into Mormon history, culture, belief and practice, theology, scripture, and the role of Mormonism in contemporary politics. This section encourages the study of Mormonism from multiple disciplines and methodologies. This section will better equip those in the academy to teach on the subject of Mormonism and actively promotes opportunities for interfaith dialogue.<\/p>\n

\nSusanna Morrill (Lewis & Clark College;\u00a0smorrill@lclark.edu<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Call for Papers<\/strong>
\nPapers are welcome in any area of Mormon Studies. We encourage papers from multiple disciplinary and methodological perspectives and especially invite proposals on the following themes:<\/p>\n

1) Papers that consider the history and culture of Mormonism, especially those that discuss the social and religious impact of women and minorities.
\n2) Papers on the development of Mormon beliefs and practices, scripture, ethics, and theology.
\n3) Papers related to interfaith dialogue between Mormonism and other Christian (and non-Christian) faith traditions.
\n4) Papers related to Mormonism and contemporary politics.
\n5) Papers that consider the place of Mormon Studies within the academic study of religion.<\/p>\n
