    Product Description

    Following the events of September 11th 2001, public focus has been on the power of religion in world politics. This book addresses the role of religious education in a polarised and globalised world where terrorism has impacted on western democracy. Through an analysis and evaluation of all the different models of religious education across the western world, the book considers if religion is part of the answer or part of the problem. Internationally, religious educators have been required to face the challenge of developing and justifying their subject matter in a world keen to combat terrorism and to promote peace. This book demonstrates that while some claim religious education inflames fundamentalist sensitivities and in some cases lead to sectarian violence, it also has the counterbalancing capacity to inform and enrich communal life.
