ISBN: 9789052012797 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

These are hyper-real religions, that is a simulacrum of a religion partly created out of popular culture which provides inspiration for believers/consumers. These postmodern expressions of...

Faith-Based Radicalism: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism Between Constructive Activism and Destructive Fanaticism

Terror attacks against Western symbols of power, suicide terrorism in Chechnya, or bombing of abortion clinics in the United States: these are a few of the violent religious outbursts that the media never seem to stop broadcasting. While these outbursts are mostly linked to Islamic extremism, it should however be acknowledged that every religion has its own violent side. Despite all the events the media are too prompt to show us, it would be dishonest and insensible not to accept that every religion has also a potential for religious peace building and communal renewal. How, can it be...

ISBN: 9789052019796 / Miękka / 2004 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.
