It is based on empirically grounded and policy-oriented research, carried out throughout the Balkans. The study maps recent interreligious relations in this part of the world, throwing light on both the achievements and challenges of interreligious dialogue for peacebuilding in particular, and offering a set of up-to-date policy recommendations, whilst contributing to a greater understanding of the local particularities and how they relate to broader trends transnationally. Interreligious dialogue has been a central tool in the continuous international efforts to promote peaceful living together in multicultural and multireligious societies. This fascinating monograph explores the place of interreligious dialogue as a primary method in conflict resolution and peacebuilding, and will be of interest to scholars of religious and peace studies, as well as those who advocate and carry out organized interventions in religion-related spheres."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Continuum advances in religious studies.Peace-buildingReligious aspectsPeace-buildingBalkan PeninsulaReligionsRelationsReligious intolerance, persecution & conflictBalkan PeninsulaReligionElectronic books.Peace-buildingReligious aspects.Peace-buildingReligionsRelations.201/.509496Merdjanova Ina1964-894121Brodeur Patrice1962-UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910457145703321Religion as a conversation starter1997290UNINA
