Abstract

This paper aims to present the partial result of the production’s mapping research project in religious studies and theology in Brazil. This research concerns more precisely the historical analysis of the dossier’s issues published by the scientific journals linked to the twenty-one Brazilian graduate programs of study of religion/religious studies and theology. The object of analysis, therefore, is delimited in the editions that published thematic dossiers in 34 journals of scientific nature in the last four-year evaluation of CAPES, initiated in 2017 up to the present moment, covering the period of 1969, when the first dossier is published up to 2018. The analysis is made by sociometric, bibliometric methods, social network analysis, and other statistical approaches
