This new book tackles two crucial questions: First, how does
religion in its various forms and manifestations influence world
politics? Second, how will adding religion to the discourse on
international relations modify our theoretical understanding? Each
of these leading authors addresses different aspects of these
questions in different contexts providing a diverse and
multifaceted view of the topic. Susanna Pearce and Tanja Ellingsen
examine the religious causes of conflict on the macro-level.
Several of the contributors focus on specific conflicts. The Gaurav
Ghose and Patrick James examine the Kashmir conflict from the
Pakistani perspective and Carolyn James and Ozgur. Ozdamar examine
it from the Indian perspective. Similarly Hillel Frisch examines
the Palestinian-ISraeli conflict from the Palestinian perspective
and Jonathan Rynhold examines it from the Israeli perspective.
Finally, two of the authors examine other important issues. Stuart
Cohen examines the evolution of the religious view of war in the
Jewish tradition and Yehudit Auerbach examines whether can play a
role in conflict resolution and reconciliation. These assessments
deliver fascinating conclusions. This book was previously published
as a Special Issue of Terrorism and Violence.
