Uluslararası Dinler Tarihi Cemiyeti (IAHR)’nin Dinler Tarihi Metodolojisine Kurumsal Katkısı

Uluslararası Dinler Tarihi Cemiyeti (IAHR), Dinler Tarihçilere ait küresel bir organizasyon olup Batılı bilim adamlarının öncülüğünde 1950’de Amsterdam’da kurulmuştur. IAHR, hem akademik hem de yapısal açıdan Dinler Tarihi metodolojisine çok daha kompozit bir teorik çatı kazandırmaya çabalar. Söz gelişi bu küresel birlik, Dinler Tarihçilerin çok boyutlu teorik konuların ele almasını yönlendirmekte aynı zamanda yayınladığı eserler ve düzenlediği çeşitli akademik toplantılarla Dinler Tarihi metodolojisinin gelişimine katkı sağlamaktadır. Her beş yılda bir düzenlediği uluslararası kongrelerle IAHR, bilim adamları arasında daha etkin bir işbirliği sağlamakta ve onları birbirlerine yakınlaştırmaktadır. IAHR, aynı zamanda ülke bazında kurulmuş üye cemiyetlerin bilimsel faaliyetlerini desteklemekte ve yerel kültürlere ait çalışmalar konusunda Dinler Tarihçilerini cesaretlendirmektedir.

The Structural Contribution of International Association for The History of Religions (IAHR) to The Methodology of The History of Religions

International Association for The History of Religions (IAHR) is a global organization belonging to the Historians of Religions, which was founded in Amsterdam in 1950. It contributes to the History of Religions in a systematic and structural way so that it might gain a composite framework. For instance by this global unity, The Historians of Religions tend to build up some multi-dimentional subjec-matters in methodological and theorical ways of the field at the most effection. IAHR gives some great opportunities to the scholars in order to publish their works, or to hold some important academical meetings such as sypmosia, congress, panels and conferences. IAHR, by periodically held-congresses, can make the scholars more effective, more familiar of each other and more coorparated ones than ever. Lastly IAHR encourages the local associations to hold acamedical activities especially on the local cultural traditions.
