Welcome to our website
Since
its foundation in 1975, the Sociology of Religion Study Group has
become the second largest discipline study group within the British
Sociological Association (BSA).
The
Study Group's annual conferences attract a wide range of specialists
and and non-specialists in contemporary religious issues and the
sociology of religion. Conferences provide a forum not only for
internationally renowned scholars in the field, but also increasingly
for young academics and post-graduate students. A particular concern of
the Study Group is to encouage younger members of the Group and to
increase the profile of the Sociology of Religion within Sociology.
