    The critical theory of religion: From having to being
    with Dustin J. Byrd and Rudolf J. Siebert
    Critical Research on Religion 1 (1): 33-42. 2013.
    In our essay we trace the evolution of the critical theory of religion, or comparative dialectical religiology, out of the critical theory of society of the Institute for Social Research or the Frankfurt School.
