Resumo: The study of religion in Brazil is facing its first emancipatory moment as a body of knowledge by composing, with theology, a new area of evaluation in the Brazilian Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel. As a part of this newly developed area, the scientific study of religion faces the challenges of asserting itself as an autonomous discipline apart from other sciences and expanding the professionalization of its proponents beyond teaching. It is necessary for the scientific study of religion to disseminate its epistemological status in a clear and definite manner, thus creating space for the application of its research and knowledge production. This study proposes an affirmative reflection on Brazilian religious studies as an autonomous discipline. We also assert the scientific value this field brings to contemporary Brazilian resolutions toward research that directly involves human subjects. Additionally, this paper suggests that regional observatories of religious phenomena are implemented to map and analyze religious developments for the purposes of providing advice and services to religious, civil, and public organizations.

Como integrante de área recém criada, a Ciência da Religião tem diante de si o desafio de se afirmar como ciência perante outras ciências e de expandir a profissionalização de seus operadores para além do campo de atuação docente. Para tanto, faz-se necessário à Ciência da Religião difundir a clareza e a solidez de seu estatuto epistemológico e criar espaços de promoção da pesquisa e de produção do saber acerca de seu objeto de estudo. Nesse horizonte, propõe-se reflexão sobre a afirmação da autonomia da Ciência da Religião enquanto ciência. Disserta-se o caráter científico desse campo do saber em sintonia com as resoluções brasileiras a reger as pesquisas com seres humanos. Ademais, lança-se a ideia da criação de observatórios regionais do fenômeno religioso destinados ao mapeamento e à análise das manifestações religiosas e à prestação de assessoria e serviços a instituições religiosas e civis e a órgãos públicosPontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2018-12-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/4072310.23925/1677-1222.2018vol18i3a11REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 18 No. 3 (2018): Religião, memória e identidade na Europa; 173-185REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 18 n. 3 (2018): Religião, memória e identidade na Europa; 173-1851677-1222reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
