Religie & Samenleving wil een podium bieden aan hen die zich bezig houden met de bestudering van de veranderingen in religie en religieuze organisaties in de Europese samenleving van de laatste twee eeuwen. Daarmee wil het tijdschrift een bijdrage leveren aan het debat over de rol van religie in de hedendaagse maatschappij. Religie & Samenleving kiest voor een multidisciplinaire benadering om zo het gesprek tussen de sociale wetenschappen onderling en tussen wetenschap en de samenleving te stimuleren. Vanuit dit brede perspectief wil het ook beleidsmakers en het geïnteresseerde publiek informeren over de veranderingen in religie in relatie tot de sociale, culturele en historische context. Het tijdschrift biedt daarom een plaats aan – in toegankelijke stijl geschreven – wetenschappelijke artikelen en essayistische bijdragen uit verschillende disciplines. Voorts zal het ruime aandacht schenken aan publicaties die op genoemde terreinen verschijnen.
