REL 2.01 Religions of Southeast Asia

This introductory course surveys religion in Southeast Asian contexts. We begin by analyzing the terms “Religion” and “Southeast Asia” as products of global politics. Then, we examine contemporary case studies from seven Southeast Asian countries to explore how religions shape local communities and life experiences. Our course materials lead us to investigate how Spirit Religions, Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity, and Islam intersect and inform understandings of embodiment, health, power, nature, and death. Open to all.
