Associate Professor of American Studies Seth Schermerhorn is the founding editor of Indigenous Religious Traditions, a new interdisciplinary, international, and peer-reviewed academic journal.
The journal is co-edited by Marie Alohalani Brown of the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. The editors say it will feature “global perspectives, with representation of peoples and traditions from all continents, covering diverse geographical regions and including traditions of the past as well as of the present.”
The inaugural issue of Indigenous Religious Traditions includes contributions from 25 scholars and content pertaining to six continents in a variety of fields related to the academic study of Indigenous religious traditions.
Schermerhorn received a Faculty Research & Innovation Award from the Arthur Levitt Public Affairs Center to support the launch of the journal.
