W.E.B. Du Bois Special Issue on Religion and Social Inequality

 

Following  in  the  path  of  W.E.B. Du  Bois,  the Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion  (JSSR)  invites  submissions  for  a  special  issue  on  the  intersection  of religion   and   social   inequality   in   the   contemporary   world.   Indeed,   religion throughout  history  and  across  societies  has  been  integral  to  the  reproduction  of social inequality. Yet, religion has also been the catalyst for social change and used to challenge social inequality in the world. W.E.B. Du Bois recognized this critical role  that  religion  plays  in  the  social  organization  of  human  life  and  consistently addressed  this  fact  in  his  work.  Du  Bois  took  religion  seriously.  Du  Bois’s scholarship  on  religion  is  an  exemplar  for  all  scholars  interested  in  the  social scientific  study  of  religion  and  is  thus  a  guide  for  contemporary  research  on  not only the Black Church but religion generally.

The primary objective of this special issue is to promote theoretically driven and methodologically rigorous social scientific scholarship on the role of religion for social  inequality  in  the  contemporary  world  that  is  informed  by  a  Du  Boisian scholarly tradition.

Submissions should be limited to 35 pages and double-spaced. This limitation is inclusive of the main document, references, tables, and figures. The limitation does not  include  appendices  that  will  be  published  online.  Papers  longer  than  the limitations are likely to be rejected without review. We also strongly encourage you to follow the format and structure of published JSSR articles. All manuscripts are subject   to   the   normal   anonymous   peer-review   process.   When   making   your submission, please select the option to designate the manuscript as part of the W. E. B. Du Bois Special Issue.

The deadline for submitting papers is June 1, 2022.

This special issue is edited by Korie Little Edwards, Cheryl Townsend   Gilkes,   and   Sandra   Barnes   along   with   the support   of   JSSR   Associate   Editors,   Aida   Ramos   and Andrea Henderson. If you have any question(s) concerning this special issue feel free to contact the JSSR W.E.B. Du BOIS CO-EDITORS at JSSRspecialissue@PROTECTED.
