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 thought of a 'clash of civilizations', a 'revolt against the West' or another Islamic revolution is sufficient for most 'secular' (Western) analysts to relegate religion completely from all research and enquiry.

When that 'Right' is of a religious nature, purportedly secular laws of war are deemed to be inferior. It is striking to note that in virtually all of the nearly 500 major wars fought around the world since 1700 'each side has imagined ...
