The Immanent Frame invites proposals for Exchanges on any questions related to the academic study and public understanding of secularism and religion. Exchanges are thematic forums comprised of original essays of between 1000-2000 words that address such questions from multiple scholarly viewpoints—within a single field, across fields within the humanities or the social sciences, or across the humanities and the social sciences. The questions may derive from either long-standing or emerging areas of academic inquiry and often, though not always, address issues of broad contemporary concern. The deadline for submitting an Exchange for consideration is March 1, 2022.

Check out The Immanent Frame‘s ten most-read essays of 2021! These essays are drawn from forums such as “Antiblackness as religion: Black living, Black dying, and Covid-19” and “Unveiling the end times: Neoliberalism and apocalypse.” Others are pieces previously published on TIF and updated in light of current developments. Scholars address wide-ranging topics—from how the movement for Black Lives intersects with religion and public health to translation’s place in the academic enterprise. Explore all essays and exchanges from the past year and beyond, including our A Universe of Terms project. Thank you to all of the contributors who wrote for The Immanent Frame in 2021. We look forward to another year of scholarly exchanges!
