Description: Jacques Waardenburg writes about relations between Muslims and adherents of other religions. After illuminating various aspects of Islam from an outside point of view in his volume "Islam" (published in 2002 by de Gruyter) his second volume changes the perspective: The author shows how Muslims perceived non-Muslims - particularly Christianity and "the West", but also Judaism and Asian religions - in many centuries of religious dialogue and tensions. The main focus is on Muslim minorities in Western countries and on religious dialogues of which he provides first-hand knowledge through his participation in several important dialogue meetings. After 50 years of research and personal involvement, Waardenburg aims at a mutual understanding and reconciliation of Islam and other religions, particularly Christianity, both on an international level as well as on a more local level where "old" and "new", Christian and Muslim Europeans live together. adherents Akbar Arab attitudes authority Balkans Beirut Bosnian Cairo Christian-Muslim Christianity and Islam Christians Christians and Muslims Church civilization concerned constructed context critical cultural dÉn developed dialogue doctrine economic empirical ethnic Euro-Arab European European Union existing fact faith groups Hinduism human Ibn Hazm idea identity ideological instance institutions intellectual interaction interest Iran Islam and Christianity Islam in Europe Islamist Israel Istanbul Jewish Jews Judaism kind l’Islam laïcité literature living London majority medieval Middle East monotheism monotheistic monotheistic religions movements Muhammad Muslim communities Muslim countries Muslim immigrants Muslim minorities Muslim societies Muslim territory Muslim world Muslim-Christian Muslims and Christians musulmans non-Muslims norms ofthe one’s organizations orientations Paris particular polemical political practice present-day problems prophet Qur’ân relations relationships religious communities revelation role Sabians scholarly scriptures secular Serbian situation social spiritual texts theological three religions tion traditions Turkish University Press various WAARDENBURG West
