Rather than competing with one another over territories, converts, or claims, religions have generally come to adopt a more conciliatory and constructive attitude toward one another, collaborating in social projects and exchanging views on common religious questions. This uniquely comprehensive volume brings together a distinguished group of scholars, including some of the field's pioneers, to explore the aims, practice, and historical context of inter-religious dialogue. It explores the engagement between a multitude of faiths around the world, from Shinto to Mormonism, separated either by geography or by their disparate ideas and practices. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eCompanion\u003c\/i\u003e examines a range of broad developments and issues including the history of dialogue, its pre-conditions, the relationship between dialogue and social action, and peace building. It combines this with a range of specific case studies exploring interactions between faiths. These include dialogues between Christians and Confucians, Muslims and the adherents of Africa's diverse faiths, and Jews and Hindus, amongst many others. Including up-to-date commentary on the growing engagement in recent years, it explores the important channels of communication now\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e open between the scholars and practitioners of the world's religions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCATHERINE CORNILLE\u003c\/b\u003e is the Newton College Alumnae Chair and Professor of Comparative Theology at Boston College.
