Theologians and leaders from many Churches and from the major world
religions, including the last four popes, have acknowledged as
unique in Christian history the spiritual gifts poured forth
through Chiara Lubich. Her spirituality of unity has the ultimate
goal of contributing to the unity for which Jesus prayed to his
Father: May they all be one (Jn 17:21). This volume gathers her
essential writings and for the first time presents them in a
systematic fashion. It is a summa of the charism of unity, which
will lead readers to ponder, understand and experience a
spirituality particularly suited to the era in which we live. The
history of the Church has seen many radicalisms of love ... that of
Francis of Assisi, of Ignatius of Loyola. There is also Chiaras
radicalism ... which seeks to make this love victorious in every
circumstance. Pope John Paul II

Communication is vital to the prosperity and survival of the
community, with the quality of communication amongst its members
directly improving or worsening the value of the community.
However, with the increase in immigration and relocation of
refugees, the need to accommodate diverse cultural groups becomes
imperative for the viability and survivability of a community while
posing challenges to communication. Intercultural and interfaith
dialogue can be used constructively to cultivate, manage, and
sustain diversity and wellbeing in particularly deeply divided
communities. Intercultural and Interfaith Dialogues for Global
Peacebuilding and Stability is a critical research publication that
explores the importance of conflict resolution strategies among
populations that include a varied amalgamation of cultural and
religious backgrounds. With the increasing emphasis on
intercultural understanding promoted by governments, civil
societies, and international mediators, this book offers relevant
remedies for major afflictions in the world today, such as
exclusion, marginalization, xenophobia, and racism. It is ideal for
government officials, policymakers, activists, diplomats, lawyers,
international trade and commerce agencies, religious institutions,
academicians, researchers, and students working in a variety of
disciplines including political science, international relations,
law, communication, sociology, and cultural studies.
