This volume explores the relationships between fundamentalist religious belief, political extremism, and outbreaks of religiously inspired violence. It examines whether the post-Cold War world is increasingly violent and if this violence results from strident religious understandings of how societies should be organized. The book provides insights into the dynamics of religiously motivated political movements and their impact on global security.
