14th CESNUR Conference returns to Waco

31 January 2014 By Editor Leave a Comment

The 2014 CESNUR conference will take place from 4th to 7th June at Baylor University, Waco (Texas). It will be hosted by the Institute for Studies on Religion. This year’s theme will be: “The Vitality of New Religions: Thinking Globally, Existing Locally”.

The conference will begin on Wednesday evening with a reception and opening session, introducing Waco and Texas’ history of new religions which reaches back to Sam Houston and the founders of the Texas Republic. Conference sessions will run through the day on Thursday and Friday, through Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon will be a time for a local tour, which will focus on the Homestead Heritage community north of Waco, and will also provide for an optional visit to the Branch Davidian site.

More information can be found on the CESNUR’s website: www.cesnur.org.

Members of the ISSNR are entitled to a 10% discount on the conference fee. If you are a ISSNR member, please mention it at the time of registration and ask for the discounted fee. The Society thanks the CESNUR and the organizers at Baylor University.

The 2017 ban by the Russian government of the Jehovah’s Witnesses on account of their being an extremist organization has prodded religious and human rights scholars into assessing their social and legal situation in several countries in order to contextualize the rationale behind the ban. Thirteen specialists participated in the seminar “Jehovah’s Witnesses and Their Opponents: Russia, the West, and Beyond” organized on September 3, 2020, by CESNUR, the New Religions Research and Information Center of Vilnius, Lithuania, and Vytautas Magnus University of Kaunas, Lithuania.
