Scholars of religion and religions are invited to submit paper proposals related to the topic. The question of what religion is, whether there is such a thing, and, if so, what may constitute the borders and boundaries are matters of dispute. Papers exploring these topics, broadly conceived, including discussions of transgressions, whether within or between traditions or the conceptualization of the debates, are welcome.

Confirmed speakers include:
Douglas Davies, University of Durham 
Prof Douglas Pratt, University of Waikato, New Zealand

Proposals in the form of a title, a short abstract (300 words max.), and a brief biographical statement, including affiliation should be sent, by Friday 1st June 2012, to:

Dr Paul Hedges, BASR Conference, Theology & Religious Studies, University of Winchester,
SO22 4NR, UK or paul.hedges@winchester.ac.uk

Papers will be 20 minutes (with 10 minutes discussion) - please plan for that!
