The Digital Turn in Religious Studies is a shift that is nurtured by the never ending duality that presents scholars as mere technology consumers or as actors in the production of technology that are able to face the challenge of complexity (ages, cultures, languages, type of sources, type of supports, semantics) that emerges from the scientific field.
The panel, promoted by RESILIENCE, the European research infrastructure for religious studies, is framed to be an open forum for all scholars who make use of advanced technologies in the study of religions. Local, national and international projects are welcome to present their research and development outputs and outcomes, to reflect on the role played by the research community in the current digital turn and to address one question: can the complexity of our field of study be a driver for technology developments that are applicable in other scientific and commercial domains?
