The Journal of Religion, Identity, and Politics

Interdisciplinary

The Journal of Religion, Identity, and Politics (JRIP) accepts articles on any aspect of religion, identity, and/or politics, but especially seeks articles that foster an interdisciplinary approach.  Articles may be from any field or discipline, and may use any method or perspective, but JRIP encourages articles that speak to themes, issues, theories or events that are of interest to readers from diverse locations within the academy.

Graduate

JRIP is led by the students of the Joint Ph.D. program in Religious and Theological Studies at the University of Denver and Iliff School of Theology. The journal’s purpose is to serve graduate students by providing a forum for the publication of their work as well as an opportunity for professional development.  The articles published by JRIP reveal the new directions that discourse in the humanities and social sciences will take as today’s graduate students become leaders in the academy: high quality, interdisciplinary and innovative.

Journal

The committee of students who edit JRIP is advised and overseen by faculty.  All articles are peer reviewed.  Editorial decisions are made through democratic processes that aim at consensus.  JRIP accepts the submission of articles and book reviews on a rolling basis. The journal uses an online format that allows authors to make use of multimedia and hypertextual possibilities.
