Unity In Diversity

The field of conflict resolution has rarely been tested so frequently as in theMiddle East. Since 1948, internecine conflict has flared in Israel/Palestine,Lebanon, and Iraq, with neighboring states sustaining the consequences ofthe tensions.Applying interfaith dialogue (IFD) as ameans to promote peacefulrelations is thus, by its very nature, fraught with controversy and uncertainty.Yet this unique approach draws on peace-building mechanisms thatbear such religious nuances as reconciliation, mercy, and forgiveness. Byeschewing secular concepts for religious resources, IFD provides a pointfrom which individuals can transcend the religious divide in search of furtherunderstanding and peace.Accordingly, following the activities of IFD organizationsin Israel/Palestine, Jordan, Egypt, and Lebanon is a complex undertakingfor the authors of Unity in Diversity. Having previously addressedNonviolence and Peacebuilding in Islam: Theory and Practice (UniversityPress of Florida: 2003) and Dialogue, Conflict Resolution, and Change:Arab-Jewish Encounters in Israel (State University of New York Press:1999), Abu-Nimer, an associate professor with the International Peace andConflict Resolution Program, lends a revealing insight into faith-based resolution.Alongside Khoury and Welty, this book introduces IDF and analyzesits application, limitations, and recommendations.Opening with an overview of the “Potentials and Challenges in InterfaithDialogue in the Middle East” in chapter 1, the authors proceed to elucidatethe book’s themes in chapter 2: “Basic Concepts and Approaches.” Inwith pdfFactory ...

Religion has long been seen as an obstacle to diplomacy, especially in disputes and conflicts that seem to be related to or motivated by religion. The very nature of religion—its concerns for dogma, truth, and certainty— would seem to be contrary to the nature of successful diplomacy, with its emphasis on empathy, dialogue, understanding, negotiation, and compromise. However, religion and diplomacy have become more interrelated since the end of the twentieth century. Globalization and the changing nature of conflict have exposed the limits of conventional diplomacy in resolving these new conflicts in a global era, and this has opened up new opportunities for religious actors involved in diplomacy. A so-called “faith-based diplomacy” has emerged, which promotes dialogue within and between religious traditions. Particularly in the Islamic world, with a new generation of theologians and politicians, it is recognized that there is a key role for religious leaders and faith-based diplomacy in the Middle East. Faith-based diplomacy can be distinguished from the traditional models of peacemaking and conflict resolution by its holistic approach to the sociopolitical healing of a conflict that has taken place. In other words, the objective of faith-based diplomacy is not only conflict resolution but also the restoration of the political order that has suffered from war and injustice, and the reconciliation of individuals and social groups.
