There exists today a rich and abounding diversity of religions in
the world-a diversity with respect to both belief and practice. But
it is a diversity that poses many challenges and raises many
questions, most especially in a pluralistic milieu. How do we
engage in effective dialogue with religious others? What should
public education reflect in a religiously pluralistic context? What
role might the diversity of religions play in developing a global
ethic? How do the various religious traditions deal with the
plurality of religious belief and practice? What role does gender
play in such discourse? The Oxford Handbook of Religious Diversity
is a volume of thirty-three original chapters that cover numerous
issues in religious diversity and draw readers into the heart of
the current dialogue. It is divided into three parts: Contours of
Religious Diversity, Key Issues Relevant to Religious Diversity,
and Differing Perspectives on Religious Diversity. Chapters in the
first part trace the general features of religious diversity
discussions from four different fields: history, religious studies,
philosophy, and sociology. Part two explores key theological,
philosophical, sociological, and public policy issues relevant to
religious diversity. The third and final part provides differing
analyses of religious diversity from multi-faith, gender, and
global points of view. An indispensable guide for scholars and
students, the Handbook makes a state-of-the-art contribution to the
field with essays crafted by experts representing a wide variety of
religious and philosophical perspectives.
