Religion, Terror and Violence: Religious Studies Perspectives de Bryan Rennie

Religion, Terror and Violence: Religious Studies Perspectives

Editat de Bryan Rennie, Philip L. Tite
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2008
September 11 and the subsequent War on Terror continues to cast a long shadow over the world. Religion, Terror and Violence brings together a group of distinguished scholars from a range of backgrounds and disciplines to explore the claim that acts of violence – most spectacularly the attack of September 11, 2001 and the international reaction to it – were intimately linked to cultural and social authorizing processes that could be called 'religious.'
This book provides a nuanced but incisive insight into the reaction of the discipline of religious studies to the post 9/11 world.
