| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Collectively, the essays in this volume reflect the complex and contested meanings of both religion and violence, providing overviews of engagements with violence in Hindu, Buddhist, Chinese, Sikh, Jewish, Christian, Islamic, African, and Pacific Island religious traditions. By shedding light on the intersection of violence with faith, this volume does much to expand our understanding of the nature of religion itself, and the diverse forms it may take. |
