MasterClass in Religious Education provides a comprehensive
exploration of the major themes in religious education research and
pedagogy, drawing on international research. The author draws
together historical, theological/religious and comparative and
international perspectives to explore religious education's role in
confronting controversial issues, and the implications this has for
teaching, learning and research. This book incorporates discussions
of current, post-9/11 debates on religion in the modern world,
focusing particularly on the relationship of religion to secular,
political contexts. Liam Gearon pays close attention to debates
around religion in liberal democratic societies, looking at topics
such as citizenship, human rights, and identity.
