Understanding Religious Violence: Thinking Outside the Box on TerrorismThere is a long-standing fear of that which is not understood. Since September 11, 2001 the fear surrounding the violent elements of religion has led to heightened tensions. Research is thus essential to counteract the effects of 'religious xenophobia'. In this compelling book J.P. Larsson investigates religious violence, terrorism and armed conflict in order to deliver the understanding required for a more peaceful world and to allow for a framework of conflict transformation. This multi-disciplinary text will greatly interest those in the fields of international relations, theology and sociology. |

The familiar logic of MAD pertains to the theory that although the first strike in a nuclear war may completely annihilate the enemy the retaliation of this enemy will none the less be of sufficient magnitude to annihilate in return.
