On the Significance of Religion for Global Diplomacy
In this ground-breaking volume it is argued that international organisations, backed by governments, can and should use their convening power to initiate new, multi-layered frameworks of engagement. Engaging the religions within a culture of dialogue or encounter can transform our understanding of effective action and give us the courage to undertake the difficult journey into the future in shared hope.
The book is divided into an introduction and six chapters
- Towards a culture of encounter inclusive of the world’s religious traditions
- Structural questions in 21st-century diplomacy
- Knowing what we ought to know: the issues that face 21st-century diplomacy
- Towards the global objective of a common peace for humanity
- Understanding how change happens
- The diplomacy of the two standards
- The development of new frameworks of engagement
