This Companion offers a global, comparative history of the
interplay between religion and war from ancient times to the
present. Moving beyond sensationalist theories that seek to explain
why 'religion causes war,' the volume takes a thoughtful look at
the connection between religion and war through a variety of lenses
- historical, literary, and sociological-as well as the particular
features of religious war. The twenty-three carefully nuanced and
historically grounded chapters comprehensively examine the
religious foundations for war, classical just war doctrines,
sociological accounts of religious nationalism, and featured
conflicts that illustrate interdisciplinary expressions of the
intertwining of religion and war. Written by a distinguished,
international team of scholars, whose essays were specially
commissioned for this volume, The Cambridge Companion to Religion
and War will be an indispensable resource for students and scholars
of the history and sociology of religion and war, as well as other
disciplines.
