Announcement: Sociology of Religion Postgraduate Essay Competition
Deadline: 27th February 2009
Announcing the 2009 Taylor & Francis Sociology of Religion Postgraduate Essay Competition
The British Sociological Association Sociology of Religion Study Group is now inviting entries for the 2009 Taylor & Francis Sociology of Religion Postgraduate Essay competition.
We welcome essays from postgraduates at all stages of their studies on any aspect of contemporary religion grounded in a sociological
perspective. The prize for the winning essay is £100 and, subject to
undergoing the usual refereeing process, it is hoped that the winning
essay will be published in the Journal of Contemporary Religion.
Essays should be between 5000 and 7000 words, and should be submitted
electronically as a single MS Word document to Kristin Aune(K.Aune@derby.ac.uk), including bibliography and cover sheet (which can be downloaded from the Study Group website). The deadline for
submission is the 27th February 2009, and entries can be submitted at
any time between now and then.
The winner of the competition will be announced at the Study Group's
Annual Conference Dinner in Durham (30th March to 1st April 2009). If
you are not already a member of the Study Group, you will need to join prior to submitting an essay.
If you are a member of staff, please download a poster to display on
your departmental notice board and encourage your postgraduate students to submit essays. If you are a postgraduate this is great opportunity to work towards an early publication on your thesis topic, or a chance to explore another area of interest.
