The Center for Religion and Media is pleased to announce a new grant opportunity for post-doctoral fellows. The grant is in relation to a new project entitled Religious Stakes in Digital Times: Scholars and Journalists in conversation will initiate new work on the role of religion in international affairs. Carrying forward an evolving sense of what “international” means, the grant will foster new research, writing, and exchange on the role of religion in the world today. As Professor Angela Zito, co-director of the Center for Religion and Media (CRM) and principle investigator on the grant, explains, “We understand international to mean something that comprises both us and them, inextricably linked by, and overflowing beyond, borders that are increasingly blurred through digital instantaneous communication. Religious experience, like so many other forms of experience in a digitally linked world, travels fast, and travels globally.”
