Scope
Ciencias Sociales y Religión is a scientific journal from the Department of Anthropology of the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP). It is an electronic journal linked to the Asociación de Ciencias Sociales de la Religión de América Latina (ACSRAL). It has been published regularly since 1999, to disseminate and update regional studies focused on the social and cultural dimensions of religious phenomena.

The journal publishes special issues, free articles, and bibliographical reviews continuously. It also organizes special topics related to the representative academic event of ACSRAL, the Jornadas de Alternativas Religiosas en América Latina, held every two years in one of the Association's member countries.
