OverviewWhat have the world’s major religions to say against violence and in the promotion of peace? What resources and initiatives for overcoming conflict and violence have emerged thanks to religion and what potential for further resources today and in the future exist? In particular, how can religion help influence and inform the political sphere? Where are scholarship and practice ‘at’ today with the study of these and related questions? This volume seeks to explore these and other debates. In particular, the differing in ways in which religion can contribute toward societies and communities exiting situations of violence and hatred. Analyzing different religious traditions, the contributing scholars explore the dynamics between religion and violence via a variety interreligious, international and interdisciplinary methods (including political science, ethics, history, sociology, law, philosophy, theology and religious studies). Reflections on peace-building and practice enhance the relevance of this book, especially with regard to real-life situation of conflict where religion has played a major part, as well as where religion can, has or could offer valuable resources for understanding and overcoming conflict and violence.
