Spatial and temporal explanations in researching religious education

Abstract:
One of the important theoretical shifts in recent decades has been a move away from linear process-driven accounts of social development, e.g. Marxism, Hegelianism or Liberalism, which often depend on the allocation of societies to particular ‘evolutionary’ phases, and towards a greater awareness of different concurrent local, global and globalising phenomena. In her chapter in this book, von Bromssen points to the significance of the Frankfurt school in this development. However, in this piece two other research perspectives are explored, and then some of the implications of this shift for research and scholarship in religious education are examined, especially for conceptualising space, place and location.
