Co-Produced Religions seeks to provide the foundations of a new history of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as co-produced communities, a history that makes clear the many different ideas and ideals that each of these communities has formed, and continues to form, by interacting with or imagining the others.

The keynote will be followed by historical case studies of co-production from the ongoing research project. Following these two portions, the webinar will turn to theological responses and reactions, breakout sessions, and a Q & A.
