Philosophy of religion emerges historically as a theory about human religious expression. While the trend in the development of the field, both in the analytic and continental traditions, has been to privilege doctrinal reflection at the expense of questions pertaining to the socio-cultural aspect of religions, recent decades have witnessed a change in orientation. Indeed, philosophy of religion is diversifying its field by increasingly focusing on the analysis of religious practices and communities, as well as on their creative or conflicting relationship with the multiple factors that characterize the global transformation of modern civilization. Religion and faith continue to play a fundamental role within social change and are a vital part of cultural expression. The philosophy of religion panel thus invites paper proposals that engage with diverse social and cultural transformations from a religious-philosophical perspective.
