Covering a broad range of research fields, including Political Science, Spiritual Psychology, and Sociology, this title will appeal to all who are engaged in the contemporary debate surrounding modern violence.This book not only provides the most up-to-date research but also fills the gap in the research that needs to be explored to create a better society. This book is a great resource for social workers, community educators, students, researchers, interfaith activists, human rights consultants, and interreligious leaders who wish to study and understand the global nature of violence.
