Dear all
I'm trying to complete an overview of academic centers or research groups and associations in Europe that have effectively been involved in (some) Mormon Studies or at least have announced it as topic of study. I am looking for centers such as these:
Academic centers / research groups (connected to a university)
Italy - CESNUR - Center for Studies on New Religions
Belgium - CIERL- Centre interdisciplinaire d'étude des religions et de la laïcité
France - GSRL - Groupe Sociétés Religions Laïcités
Switzerland - ISSRC - Institut de sciences sociales des religions
contemporaines
U.K. - Durham University - Department of Theology and Religion, with the research group Study of Religion and prof. Douglas Davies
And Associations such as (only if effectively involved in some Mormon Studies)
EMSA (of course)
European Observatory of Religions and Secularism
IFReM - Institut Français pour la Recherche sur le Mormonisme
Also, I'm trying to make an overview of references to theses and dissertations dealing with an aspect of Mormonism from whatever department or faculty. I think I have most of those from Belgium, but would like to get more from other European countries.
Please email me or to the list.
Thanks all!
