Religion Terror and Violence

<p>September 11 and the subsequent War on Terror continues to cast a long shadow over the world. <em>Religion Terror and Violence</em> 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.' </p><p>This book provides a nuanced but incisive insight into the reaction of the discipline of religious studies to the post 9/11 world. </p>
