By taking a comparative perspective, this volume highlights the importance of religious education worldwide as a lens for understanding broader social and political transformations. Changes in religious education often mirror shifts in national identity, state-church relations, and educational policy.
Historically, religious education has often been seen as a tool for reinforcing cultural and religious identity. However, as the world becomes more interconnected and religious diversity grows within national borders, RE has increasingly been called upon to play a different role—one that fosters understanding and peaceful coexistence among people of different faiths and worldviews. The volume Teaching Religious Education: Challenges, Developments, and Current Debates in Comparative Perspective delves into these complexities, offering a comprehensive exploration of how religious education is taught, debated, and implemented across a diverse range of countries, challenging the Eurocentric focus of much existing research on religious education.
