Description
The international conference Nature Religions, Science and Technology seeks tobring into the contemporary discussion interdisciplinary debates in the fields of
religion, science and technology, by focusing especially on philosophical,
theological, anthropological and religious studies perspectives. The contributions
include original research on selected topics in pantheism, animism and/or paganism — especially (but not exclusively) in their ‘Western’ forms — in relation to important questions about science and technology. In this way, the research presented and produced by both established as well as early career scholars, addresses contemporary cultural and intellectual sensibilities that arise in the intersection of these fields. A selection of the papers will be published in a special issue of journal Religions, titled Religion, Science and Technology in Pantheism, Animism and Paganism.
The conference is a part of the research project Creatures, Humans, Robots:
Creation Theology Between Humanism and Posthumanism, based at the Institute for Philosophical Studies, Science and Research Centre of Koper (ZRS Koper), Slovenia, and funded by Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS). The conference is co-organized and supported by ZRS Koper, and the Centre for Religion, Health and Wellbeing at the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, University of Groningen. It is taking place at the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, University of Groningen, The Netherlands, on 22nd and 23rd September, 2022.
