| Zusammenfassung: | "Currently scholarship on science and religion covers a range of topics, including religious responses to scientific and technological developments, methodological approaches to the study of science and religion, and normative proposals for the relationship between the categories. Despite this breadth, the field typically frames important questions of human existence as abstract philosophical and theological inquiries. But what if these are not two distinctly separate categories? Can science and religion scholarship become more public-facing and speak directly to the social and political issues that shape our everyday lives? With Critical Approaches to Science and Religion, Myrna Perez Sheldon, Ahmed Ragab, and Terence Keel argue that this is possible when perspectives from three areas of critical theory-critical-race theory, feminist and queer theory, and postcolonial theory-are brought to bear on the field. By engaging with these critical theories, scholars would be better able to account for how histories of empire, slavery, and patriarchy have shaped science and religion in modern times. Developing this critical historical perspective would, in turn, enable science and religion scholarship to speak meaningfully to contemporary political issues including climate change, immigration, healthcare, reproductive justice, and sexual identity. The book seeks to reframe the study of science and religion such that those who engage with its scholarship will be better positioned to explore questions such as: should religious communities be exempt from government mandated healthcare provisions based on health science? Should religious leaders make public claims about the status of life and personhood in reaction to changing reproductive an genetic technologies? Are indigenous communities obligated to believe the Out of Africa hypothesis developed by Euro-American biologists? The intent of these and similar questions is to encourage an approach to the study of science and religion that more fully addresses the lied realities of contemporary communities around the globe"-- |

Despite this breadth, the field typically frames important questions of human existence as abstract philosophical and theological inquiries. But what if these are not two distinctly separate categories? Can science and religion scholarship become more public-facing and speak directly to the social and political issues that shape our everyday lives? With Critical Approaches to Science and Religion, Myrna Perez Sheldon, Ahmed Ragab, and Terence Keel argue that this is possible when perspectives from three areas of critical theory-critical-race theory, feminist and queer theory, and postcolonial theory-are brought to bear on the field. By engaging with these critical theories, scholars would be better able to account for how histories of empire, slavery, and patriarchy have shaped science and religion in modern times. Developing this critical historical perspective would, in turn, enable science and religion scholarship to speak meaningfully to contemporary political issues including climate change, immigration, healthcare, reproductive justice, and sexual identity. The book seeks to reframe the study of science and religion such that those who engage with its scholarship will be better positioned to explore questions such as: should religious communities be exempt from government mandated healthcare provisions based on health science? Should religious leaders make public claims about the status of life and personhood in reaction to changing reproductive an genetic technologies? Are indigenous communities obligated to believe the Out of Africa hypothesis developed by Euro-American biologists? The intent of these and similar questions is to encourage an approach to the study of science and religion that more fully addresses the lied realities of contemporary communities around the globe"-- Provided by publisher.
