HARRIS Lecturer in Theology, University of Exeter PETER PALMER Brasenose College, Oxford C.

WYATT Research Fellow, University of Reading. Klappentext Discussions of religion in international relations have often focused narrowly on religious fundamentalism and on the potentially negative consequences of religious differences. This book attempts to take a more balanced and much broader view of the subject, bringing together new research-based studies by specialists from international relations, history and theology. Case-studies and thematic analyses examine both seldom-discussed issues - such as the political consequences of large-scale religious change - and review old themes in new ways. Zusammenfassung Discussions of religion in international relations have often focused narrowly on religious fundamentalism and on the potentially negative consequences of religious differences.
