[Air-l] Religious Encounters in Digital Networks

[Morten Thomsen Hojsgaard]

RELIGIOUS ENCOUNTERS IN DIGITAL NETWORKS
Religion and Computer-Mediated Communication

Conference
1-3 November
University of Copenhagen, Denmark

Scope
The emergence of the Internet has provided
a new context for interaction between
religious groupings and individuals in
modern society. Religious encounters can
now take place in digital settings that
apparently transcend a number of conventional
boundaries such as organisational structures,
time zones, geographic borders, religious
traditions, and cultural divisions. This
Conference seeks a deeper understanding of
this expanding field of religious
communication on the Internet.

Keynote Speakers
-Lorne L. Dawson, Associate Professor, University of Waterloo
-Massimo Introvigne, Managing Director, CESNUR, Torino
-Stephen D. O'Leary, Associate Professor, University of Southern California
