Abstract
This chapter charts a policy shift within international and European intergovernmental
institutions towards advocating the study of religions (or the study of
religions and beliefs) in European publicly funded schools. The events of September
11, 2001 in the USA acted as a ‘wake up call’ in relation to recognising the
legitimacy and importance of the study of religions in public education. For example,
policy recommendations from the Council of Europe and guiding principles for the
study of religions and beliefs from the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in
Europehave been developed and are under consideration by member or participating
states of both bodies. In translating policy into practice, appropriate pedagogies need
to be adopted or developed. The chapter uses the example of the interpretive
approach to indicate how issues of representation, interpretation and reflexivity might
be addressed in studying religious diversity within contemporary societies in ways
which both avoid stereotyping and engage students’ interest.
