Abstract

This article will discuss the scholarly communities of religious education in Finland during the past 40 years. In this article I will use material from curricula, dissertations and some key researchers in order to describe the contribution of the scholarly communities in the field of religious education concerning RE. Finally, I point out that multicultural education seems to be beginning to constitute a scholarly community within RE research that could bring dialogue and knowledge-creation in RE research into a new phase.
