Call for Applications – Research Workshops on Religion and Economic Inequality

The Center of Theological Inquiry invites applications for research workshops in religion and economic inequality from researchers in theology, economics, the humanities, and sciences. Resident members will discuss their work in progress, before presenting it in a concluding symposium with Princeton University’s Center for the Study of Religion. The center encourages proposals that connect the fundamental human concerns of the humanities with the economic reality of inequalities of income and wealth. Does extreme economic inequality impair a basic sense of human dignity, equality, and belonging in society? Does it raise new questions for theology, philosophy, history, literary studies, or the arts? For example, should the world’s religions consider economic inequality a moral issue, as they have poverty and wealth?
