Religion has the capacity to form intentional groups and communities as
well as to mobilize agents to work for certain goals.  This formation
of communities and mobilization of resources to achieve goals is
actually consonant with the term "formation of publics" as used by C. Wright
Mills. This conference will explore the new publics of the 21st century.
Publics here may be individuals and/or groups who attempt to create
knowledge and/or achieve certain actions using religious ideals, beliefs,
and/or symbols.

through these following themes are especially sought:
