关于宗教与全球化的研究表明，宗教对全球动态的反应是多种多样的，从防御性到开放性和创造性的范围很广。然而，以日本宗教为例进行这一领域研究的尝试出人意料地少之又零碎；全面全球化理论的使用仍然不发达。有时，一个根本的概念障碍是，占主导地位的观点沦为全球机构扩张的层面，这阻碍了对复杂得多的动态的充分参与。在其他情况下，可能仅仅是抵制将当代全球化理论应用于宗教领域的具体案例研究。可能还有一些日本历史特有的特点，推迟了全球化视角在其宗教世界中的应用。基于这些前提，本期特刊收集的井上信隆、乌戈·德斯、加伦·阿姆斯图兹、维多利亚·罗斯·蒙特罗斯、吉拉多·罗德里格斯·普拉恩西亚、瑞吉娜·松江、拉斐尔·肖吉和弗兰克·乌萨尔斯基的文章讨论了这个多元化、复杂世界中的几个例子和主题，这是正在进行的解决我们在意识方面的差距的工作的一部分。
Research on religion and globalization is revealing that religious responses to global dynamics have been highly varied, positioned across a broad spectrum that ranges from the defensive to the open and creative. However, attempts to engage this area of studies in the case of Japanese religions have been unexpectedly few and fragmentary; the use of full-scale globalization theory remains underdeveloped. Sometimes an underlying conceptual obstacle is that the dominating perspective is reduced to the dimension of worldwide institutional expansion, which prevents a full engagement with the much more complex dynamics. In other cases, there may simply be resistance to the application of contemporary globalization theories to concrete case studies in religion. Possibly also some features peculiar to Japanese history have delayed the application of globalization perspectives to its religious worlds. Based on these premises the articles by Inoue Nobutaka, Ugo Dessì, Galen Amstutz, Victoria Rose Montrose, Girardo Rodriguez Plasencia, Regina Yoshie Matsue, and Rafael Shoji and Frank Usarski collected in this special issue address several examples and themes in this diversified, complex world as part of the ongoing work of addressing our existing gaps in awareness.
