While holding onto the field of inquiry, the Handbook offers contributions that interrogate and untie it from the terms and conditions that have formed it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe volume is organized into thematic sections:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Forces and Futures\u003cbr\u003e- Activisms and Labors\u003cbr\u003e- Agencies and Practices\u003cbr\u003e- Relationships and Institutions\u003cbr\u003e- Texts and Objects\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapters range across religious, geographical, historical, political, and social contexts and feature an array of case-studies, experiences, and topics that exemplify the reflexive intention of the volume, including explorations of race, whiteness, colonialism, and the institutional intolerance of minority groups. Contributors also advance new areas of research in religion including artificial intelligence, farming, migrant mothering, child sexual abuse, mediatization, national security, legal frameworks, addiction and recovery, decolonial hermeneutics, creative arts, sport,  sexual practices, and academic friendship. This is an essential contribution to the fields of religious studies and gender and sexuality studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSîan\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eHawthorne\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, Religion and Politics at SOAS, University of London, UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDawn Llewellyn\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Religion and Gender at the University of Chester, UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSonya Sharma\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Sociology at University College London, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23 July 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781350257214\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e496\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51223573594252,"sku":"9781350257214","price":49.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_4ef09461-190b-44d9-aec8-75a0c2c8f01b.jpg?v=1783077522","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781350257214","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
