The Oxford Handbook of Religion and Education offers a multi-disciplinary work of scholarship and research highlighting the global significance of a critical interface of cultural and social, political, and theological importance. Drawing on historical perspective and contemporary reflection, the collection provides a uniquely transformative analysis of why the interface of religion and education is of such critical significance. With contributions from some of the leading thinkers in the field, this Handbook presents a cumulatively powerful argument to reassess the complexities of the intersection of religion and education. With ambitious and yet accessible intellectual engagements, the Handbook here furthers a central thesis: that the interface of religion and education is not merely a matter of arcane disputation about a domain of ancient origin or a rudimentary matter of formal educational process, but a vibrant domain of critical contestation fundamental to knowing, understanding, and living in the modern world.
