Believers in the Battlespace Religion, Ideology and War

Canadian Defence Academy Press. 2011. (ISBN: 9781100161686). Paperback. Book, Clean tightly bound copy. Unmarked text. Secure packaging! Blaming religion for creating conflict has become a popular activity in recent years. such a conclusion, however, does not survive contact with the evidence. The closer the examination of specific situations, the less explanatory value there is in blacket statements about the culpability of religion for violence in the world. Yet, in the 21st century, the role played by religious belief in any particular conflict has become more significant. Religious factors are at least equal to social, cultural and pscyological ones in understanding the sources of conflict and the motivations of the combatants. Even in a supposedly secular society like our ownm values linked to religion are embodied in many of the decisions we make. Beginning with the idea that the battlefield has irrovocably become the battlespace, the authors of this collection of articles and essays explore the relation between religion and modern warfare in a fariety of hitorical and contemporary contexts. h1. Very Good.
