Call for Proposals This Seminar invites proposals for article-length papers to be precirculated for discussion at the Annual Meeting.

The Seminar especially welcomes papers on the following themes: Competing Wests West of the West Economies of religion in the West, especially considering the West as node(s) in a global economy The West in Pacific World religion New religious movements in the West Urban and rural Wests Religion, media, technology, and the West Mission This Seminar seeks to explore the role of religion in the American West and the ways that considerations of religion affect our understanding of both the West and the history of religion in America. Our goal is to foster both scholarship and teaching about religion in the American West.
