About This Book
"Ethnoreligious Conflict in the Late Twentieth Century critiques the existing literature on religion and ethnic conflict, then presents and analyzes the original quantitative data gathered from a variety of sources. Fox draws upon the Minorities at Risk model of ethnic conflict to develop and test a dynamic and comprehensive theory of religion and conflict.
He applies this theory to resurgent conflicts between ethnic groups of different religions - from the Iranian revolution and the Afghan struggle against the Soviets in the 1980s to the ongoing Middle East conflict - to pinpoint the ways in which religion has become intertwined in, and lent legitimacy to, conflicts in the contemporary world."--BOOK JACKET.
