From the Back Cover

This book addresses the problem of religiously based conflict and violence via six case studies. It stresses particularly the structural and relational aspects of religion as providing a sense of order and a networked structure that enables people to pursue quite prosaic and earthly concerns. The book examines how such concerns link material and spiritual salvation into a holy alliance. As such, whilst the religions concerned may be different, they address the same problems and provide similar explanations for meaning, success, and failure in life. Each author has conducted their own field-work in the religiously based conflict regions they discuss, and together the collection offers perspectives from a variety of different national backgrounds and disciplines.

James Dingley is a political sociologist at Queen's University, Belfast. He is Chairman of the Francis Hutcheson Institute and a member of the Advisory Committee of the Northern Ireland Security Qualifications Group. He has published extensively in international journals, and has also published five previous books specialising in development, religion, and nationalist conflict.

Marcello Mollica is Associate Professor of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology at the University of Messina. Italy. He has conducted field work in Northern Ireland, Middle East, South-eastern Turkey and South Caucasus.
