Reflections on Leo Tolstoy's "War and Peace," these original essays
examine various facets of violence and human efforts to create
peace. Religion is deeply involved in both processes: ones that
produce violence and ones that seek to create harmony. In the war
on terror, radical religion is often seen to be a major cause of
inter-group violence. However, these essays show a much more
complex picture in which religion is often on the receiving end of
conflict that has its origin in the actions of the state in
response to tensions between majorities and minorities. As this
volume demonstrates, the more public religion becomes, the more
likely it is to be imbricated in communal strife.
