For centuries Christians and Muslims have engaged with each other
in manifold ways, peaceful and otherwise, be it in scholarly study,
or in war and colonization. Today, Christians represent an
influential body of opinion that largely perceives Islam, post
9/11, as a threat. Yet Muslims represent approximately one third of
the world's population. Improved understanding between Christians
and Muslims is therefore crucial and a prerequisite for universal
peace and justice. This book aims to investigate Islam's place in
the world, Muslim aspirations vis-a-vis non-Muslims and the
realities of how Muslims are perceived and how they perceive
others. Each chapter analyses accessible texts from central
thinkers and commentators, broadly split into two camps:
confrontational or conciliatory. Christian-Muslim relations are set
in the wider context of civilizational, geo-political and economic
interaction between the Muslim world and the historically Christian
West.
