Check out The Immanent Frame‘s ten most-read essays of 2022! This year’s essays were featured in the forums “Out there: Perspectives on the study of Black metaphysical religion” and “Hindutva and the shared scripts of the global right,” with the exception of one from the forum “Religion, spirituality, and democratic renewal: Essays from the 2020 fellows.” Scholars address wide-ranging topics—from the development of twentieth-century Black religious traditions at a communal, participatory level to the rise of right-wing nationalism in India and across the world.
