The International Journal for the Study of New Religions<\/a>,<\/em> published by Equinox in association with the International Society for the Study of New Religions (Sweden), is a new, international vehicle for publishing theoretical and empirically-based studies in the field of new religions.<\/p>\n

International Journal for the Study of New Religions<\/em> considers submissions from both established scholars and research students from all over the world. Articles should be written for a general scholarly audience. All articles are refereed. International Journal for the Study of New Religions is published biannually in May and November. Each issue includes articles and a number of book reviews. The journal is published simultaneously in print and online.<\/p>\n

The term “New Religions” can be defined in several ways. ISSNR and IJSNR has chosen to adopt a broad definition. In the narrow sense, “New Religions” is a term applied especially to religious phenomenon that emerged in the West after the mid-1900s.<\/p>\n

More widely understood, the term can also include older religious movements or organizations which are “new” in a specific historical context. The term encompasses organized groups as well as less organized movements. Many of these groups and movements are international and can be found in numerous countries.<\/p>\n

There are also new religious movements that are specific to a particular country or to a particular area of the world. In recent decades, new religions or new religious movements outside of the Western context have attracted attention.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the concept of New Religions includes contemporary Paganism, less organized phenomena, such as the so-called New Age and alternative spirituality, as well as new expressions within established religions.<\/p>\n
