Summary:

"The publications of the interdisciplinary and internationally networked Research Platform “World Order – Religion – Violence” seek to improve our understanding of the relationship between religion, politics and violence. It therefore deals especially with the return of religious themes and symbols into politics, with the analysis of the link between political theory and religion, and finally with the critical discussion of the secularization thesis. At the centre of the research are questions concerning the causes of violent conflict, the possibilities for a just world order and the conditions for peaceful coexistence on a local, regional, national and international/worldwide scale between communities in the face of divergent religious and ideological convictions. Its task is to initiate and coordinate thematically related research-efforts from various disciplinary backgrounds at the University of Innsbruck. It creates a network between departments, research-teams and single researchers working on topics of religion, politics and violence. The overall aim of the research platform World Order-Religion-Violence is to promote excellence in social and human science research on religion and politics at the University of Innsbruck and to guarantee the diffusion of this particular competence on a national and international level."

"Band 2 untersucht das Verhältnis von Monotheismus und Gewalt im Blick auf die Fragen der Säkularisierung und des multikulturellen Zusammenlebens in Europa. Die einzelnen Beiträge beleuchten dieses Problemfeld unter besonderer Berücksichtung von Christentum und Islam und stellen dabei jeweils historische, systematische oder praktisch-politische Gesichtspunkte und Fragen in den Vordergrund. Mit Beiträgen von Arnold Angenendt, Ednan Aslan, Sibylle Auer, Elisabeth Dörler, Werner Ernst, Hanna-Barbara Gerl-Falkovitz, Otto Kallscheuer, Jürgen Manemann, Andreas Oberprantacher, Wolfgang Palaver, Karl Prenner, Matthias Scharer, Thomas Scheffler und Roman Siebenrock.
