General presentation

The Religious Studies and Theologies GIS of the Strasbourg Universities
In a general way, the purpose of a Scientific Interest Group or GIS ("Groupement d’intérêt scientifique") is to bring together research centers, individual researchers and professors who share a common scientific interest. More specifically, the Religious Studies and Theologies GIS of the Strasbourg Universities unites academics working in such fields as anthropology, ethnology, history, law, linguistics, literature, philology, philosophy, political science, sociology and theology whose primary or secondary field of research is religion, in order to develop the resources and capabilities of the Strasbourg institutions on a national and international level.
