Overview
At a time when democracies are under pressure and authoritarian regimes are on the rise, the world's religions find themselves challenged in new and unfamiliar ways, with opportunities to co-operate in new ways. This book reflects on fifty years of debate about interreligious dialogue and pluralism in this new context. Are the religions with their exclusive beliefs part of the problem, or are they able to contribute - together - to maintaining human rights, overcoming economic inequality and preventing ecological destruction? The book shows how Buddhism, Christianity and Islam interact with very different social and political situations, and with one another as a potential for peace.
