Abstract
This chapter introduces the research questions of this work by defining in what terms the topic of Religious Education (RE) is approached, and why it is engaged through the study of religions, especially those of Japan and other East Asian regions. Briefly, this work discusses how the topic of Japanese and East Asian religions can help to critically rethink non-confessional Religious Education. The theoretical tools that will be applied are outlined and a synopsis of the chapters is offered.
