Description
Summary:Wie kann Religion zum Frieden beitragen anstatt Konflikte anzuheizen? Autoren verschiedener Disziplinen untersuchen die Friedenspotenziale von Religionen aus historischen, praktischen und wissenschaftlichen Perspektiven. Die Analyse offenbart vielfältige Chancen und Erfahrungen religiöser Akteure, Gewaltkonflikte zu entschärfen und nachhaltig zu befrieden. - How do religions and religious actors respond to violent conflict and peace efforts? Taking for granted the ambivalence of religion as a fuel for confrontation and as a harbinger of peace the authors of this volume search for the potentials of faith and religion to promote peace. They also explore the role religious actors played in various recent conflicts and peace processes. The analysis is based on historical and practical, but especially on scientific perspectives from different academic disciplines. Their findings show eminent opportunities of religious actors to de-escalate violent conflicts and contribute to the establishment of sustainable peace.
