Description
Summary:Navigating its way through the ever-multiplying academic literature related to Peace and Conflict Studies, this article constructs a hermetical lens that is then applied to map the values and actions projected by Religions for Peace, an interreligious NGO whose international secretariat based in New York City coordinates a network extending to 90 countries. Structure for this mapping is provided by revisiting a classic text in the field, Diamond and MacDonald's, Multi-Track Diplomacy: A Systems Approach to Peace, The resultant conversation between academic literature associated with Peace and Conflict Studies and Religions for Peace's public face will appeal to scholars and practitioners interested in emic representations of a cogent example amongst a growing number of faiths-based NGOs dedicated to working for world peace.
