Navigate religious hybridity with a systematic typology and critical framework
As exposure to multiple religious traditions increases, scholars and practitioners face complex questions about religious belonging and identity. In Between Religions: On Religious Hybridity and Belonging surveys arguments for and against multiple religious belonging while offering a systematic typology of religious hybridity. Catherine Cornille, Professor of Comparative Theology at Boston College, examines this phenomenon from both individual and institutional perspectives.
This volume analyzes the constituent components of religious belonging and develops degrees and kinds of religious hybridity into a coherent framework. It maintains a critical realist view of discrete religions while acknowledging fluid boundaries. The final chapter explores how religious traditions themselves can engage constructively with hybridity, offering resources for theological and phenomenological reflection on interreligious engagement.
Readers will find:
A comprehensive survey of scholarly arguments developed around multiple religious belonging and religious hybridity across diverse traditions and contexts

Critical examination of religious hybridity from the self-understanding of religious traditions themselves rather than solely from individual perspectives

Designed for upper undergraduate and graduate courses in lived religion, interreligious dialogue, multiple religious belonging, religious pluralism, and comparative religion, In Between Religions provides scholars and students with analytical tools for understanding one of contemporary religion's most significant phenomena.
