Více o knize

Focusing on the intersection of religion and ethnic violence, this work offers a groundbreaking empirical analysis of how religious factors contribute to ethnoreligious conflict. By critiquing existing literature and utilizing original quantitative data, the author develops a dynamic theory based on the Minorities at Risk model. The study examines significant historical conflicts, such as the Iranian revolution and the Afghan struggle against the Soviets, to reveal how religion has legitimized and influenced contemporary ethnic tensions.
