Product Description
Contributors to this volume explore the relationships between fundamentalist religious belief, political extremism and outbreaks of religiously inspired violence. Is the post-Cold War world increasingly violent and is this violence the result of increasingly strident religious understandings of how societies should be organised? The contributors to this volume do not always agree on the answers to these questions. But they do agreee the questions themselves are among the most important to be posed in the early years of the 21st century.
This is an excellent and stimulating collection. It is part of the new Frank Cass series on 'Totalitarian Movements and Political Religions', which will include volumes on Stalinism, International Fascism, Italian Fascism, Nazism, Euro-Communism and Genocide.
Thomas Robbins, Rochester, Minnesota
