International relations as a discipline has largely ignored the
role of religion in shaping international events. The growth of
Islamist militancy, the increasing influence of the Christian Right
on US foreign policy and George Bush's war on terror changed this
for good. Now more than ever we need to analyze this change and
consider how religion and the way it is represented affects
international politics. Lee Marsden and Heather Savigny uniquely
bring together some of the leading figures in the fields of
politics and media, international relations and security, and
international relations and religion, including freelance
journalist and newspaper columnist Nick Cohen, the international
authority on politics and religion Professor Jeffrey Haynes, and
Professor Justin Lewis who has a number of BBC commissions under
his belt. The volume offers a series of case studies reflecting on
how the media covers religion as conflict within and between
states. It challenges readers to critically examine how media
reportage and commentary influences perceptions and responses to
religion and security.
