Christians and the Middle East Conflict deals with the relationship
of Christians and Christian theology to the various conflicts in
the Middle East, a topic that is often sensationalized but still
insufficiently understood. Political developments over the last two
decades, however, have prompted observers to rediscover and examine
the central role religious motivations play in shaping public
discourses. This book proceeds on the assumption that neither a
focus on the eschatological nor a narrow understanding of the
plight of Christians in the Middle East is sufficient. Instead, it
is necessary to understand Christians in context and to explore the
ways that Christian theology applies through the actions of
Christians who have lived and continue to live through conflict in
the region either as native inhabitants or interested foreign
observers. This volume addresses issues of concern to Christians
from a theological perspective, from the perspective of Christian
responses to conflict throughout history, and in reflection on the
contemporary realities of Christians in the Middle East. The essays
in this volume combine contextual political and theological
reflections written by both scholars and Christian activists and
will be of interest to students and scholars of Politics, Religion
and Middle East Studies.
