Current Trends in the Study of Religion, Film and Media

Zusatztext

Congratulations, JRFM! With this issue we celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the Journal for Religion, Film and Media (JRFM), which has been published in cooperation with scholars and institutions in Europe and the United States since 2015. We are using this moment to take stock of current trends and consider future developments in the study of religion and media. JRFM is a vital platform for exploring the relationships between religion, media and society, both in the present and in the past. Questions investigated in this field are arguably key to ensuring that the study of religion remains relevant to both students and stakeholders in the contemporary academic world. In addition, JRFMs aim to bring together an interdisciplinary community of scholars willing to cultivate a collegial spirit remains a crucial objective for the study of religion and media in general, even though it is perhaps the exception rather than the rule in todays segmented academic world. Finally, as a peer-reviewed, Open Access publication, JRFM is positioned to promote the internationalization of the field and to bring high quality discussions on religion and media to a widening audience beyond Europe. We look forward to the next ten years of exciting research published in JRFM.
