Zusammenfassung: | Where and when do religious conflicts occur? -- Which religious conflicts are difficult to resolve? -- How do religious issue conflicts get resolved through peace aagreements? -- How do religious issue conflicts get resolved through concessions? -- Towards a theory of desacralisation "Ending Holy Wars explores how religious dimensions affect the possibilities for conflict resolution in civil war. This is the first book that systematically tries to map out the religious dimensions of internal armed conflicts and explain the conditions under which religious dimensions impede peaceful settlement. It draws upon empirical work on global data, based on the Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP), and complements this quantitative data with several smaller case studies (Sir Lanka, Philippines and Indonesia). The book shows how religious identities and incompatibilities influcence the likelihood of agreements and the mechanisms through which parties and third-party mediators have been able to overcome religious obstacles to negotiated settlements. These findings pave the way for a discussion on how conflict theory can better incorporate religious dimensions, as well as how policy can be designed to manage religious dimensions in armed conflicts."--Back cover |
