  Ross Aden Reviews To Make the Earth Whole

  Ross Aden, an Associate Professor of Religious studies has the following detailed review of the book:

  In my investigation of religious violence, I discovered a religious peacemaker whose work exemplifies a constructive religious response to the religious aggression of our century. Rabbi Marc Gopin has shared his peacekeeping vision and methods in a new book, TO MAKE THE EARTH WHOLE: THE ART OF CITIZEN DIPLOMACY IN AN AGE OF RELIGIOUS MILTANCY (Rowman and Littlefield, 2009). This is a book of practical wisdom about the critical role of religion in the politics of war and peace in our time. Gopin shows how the theory and practice of religious peacemaking can be integrated and how that integration can contribute to a more just and peaceful world.

  Gopin’s is book contains sections on
  • Foundations of a Global Community through Citizen Diplomacy
  • Global Diplomacy and Incremental Change…
  • Diplomacy with a Conscience…
