As the Western world became increasingly secular and the process of globalisation deepened, it seemed inevitable - on the surface at least - that the voice of religion was to be heard softly if it was to be heard at all. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis has now changed, and changed perhaps irrevocably. As Jeff Haynes argues in this thought-provoking and important new book, various religious 'actors' are now significantly involved in international relations and have become a crucial influence on policy in a post-Westphalian world. \u003ci\u003eInternational Relations and Religion\u003c\/i\u003e guides the reader through the complex issues at the heart of this topic with clarity and insight. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis updated second edition starts with a close reading of the many theoretical and analytical concepts - notably Huntington and the clash of civilisations - that have grown up around this area and then concludes with a summary of the issues under discussion and attempts to put into context what it means to live in a world that is increasingly shaped by a whole host of diverse religious groups. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEssential reading for students of International Relations and Politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Haynes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138135674\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138135673\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d","brand":"Jeffrey Haynes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48621973897471,"sku":"9781138135673","price":255.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/an-introduction-to-international-relations-jeffrey-haynes-9781138135673","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
