About This Item
New York, NY: Oxford University Press, 2002. Soft cover. Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to upper front inside corner and back edge near spine; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; In this book, Marc Gopin integrates the study of religion with the study of conflict resolution. He argues that religion can play a critical role in constructing a global community of shared moral commitments and vision - and can limit conflict to its nonviolent, constructive variety. If we examine religious myths and moral traditions we can understand why and when religious people come to violence or become staunch peacemakers. Gopin considers ways to construct traditional paradigms that are committed to peacemaking and offers such a paradigms that are committed to peacemaking and offers such a paradigm for Judaism. Throughout, Gopin emphasizes that developing the potential of the world's religion for coping with conflict demands a conscious process on the part of peacemakers and theologians.
