Abstract
Four transformations are impacting all universities in North Atlantic cultures and often beyond: the global transformation, the critical transformation, the multidisciplinary transformation, and the practical transformation. The academic field of philosophy of religion has been slow to respond to the associated challenges, even though its departmental homes – philosophy and academic religious studies – have proved to be more agile, at least in some respects. The implacable social reality of these transformations affords criteria for estimating the future of philosophy of religion and recent field-wide empirical studies add specificity. Using these resources, it is possible to read the tea leaves, understand what’s happening, and imagine what is required to reverse the trend of rapid contraction of academic positions in philosophy of religion.
