Melisa Liana Vazquez writes: “After getting my PhD in law and religion from the Sapienza Universita di Roma in 2018, I started researching and writing about the intersections between law, religion, and culture. Indigenous water management, interfaith responses to the pandemic, overpopulation, and human rights and theological responses to ecological crises have been just some of the fascinating places my work has taken me. My new book, Varieties of Religious Space: Freedom, Worship, and Urban Justice, is about religious spaces in pluralistic environments and investigates how urban justice and freedom could be coconspirators in the pursuit of new ways of imagining and living in shared space.” Contact Melisa at [email protected].
