We are organizing a panel for the Asian Studies Conference Japan to be held in Tokyo from June 30-July 1, 2012 and are seeking the third panelist. The proposal submission deadline is November 15. The tentative title of the panel is "Defining and Engaging the Social: religious changes in modern Japan." The panel attempts to explore the ways in which the social came to be conceptualized and articulated by religious theorists in response to changes and problems in nineteenth and early twentieth century Japan. How did religionists attempt to make their faith relevant to changing social conditions and useful more broadly thereby empowering themselves? How was religion itself recreated in the process of creating the social? We seek a paper that deals with any religion and/or any figure that was active in the period referred to above. Please contact Yijiang Zhong ASAP at arizyj@nus.edu.sg.
