Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship. He specializes in contemporary European philosophy, particularly as it bears on religious experience. Previously, Dr. Faulconer served as chair of the Philosophy Department at Brigham Young University. The Global Philosophy of Religion Project aims to make the philosophy of religion a truly global field by promoting the scholarly work of researchers from underrepresented regions and religious traditions.
