Location: US
Company: Education
The religion and justice minor examines religion as a human category that cuts across global space and historical time. Whether examining, for example, the radical call for justice in the Jewish prophetic tradition, the spiritual quietism of the Sufi mystical tradition, the call for holy war in later Christianity, the traditions of non-violence in Buddhism, or even American secular religion, this minor allows students to explore how religion continues to influence and be influenced by political, social, economic, legal, artistic, and cultural frameworks. Focused especially on the ways in which religion can support as well as stand in tension with the aims of social justice, especially in a global context, the minor allows students to add an additional lens to any major.
