Summary

This selection of 10 compelling stand-alone segments from the PBS television series brings together experts, scholars, and religious leaders from a variety of communities and faiths to discuss a wide range of related issues: war and peace, terrorism and its roots, fundamentalism, just war, holy war, pacifism, the use of force, and violence in the name of God. Along with documentary footage and field reportage, the panel discussions provide new, insightful perspectives into some of the most timely issues today-- issues at the root of current events around the world. Most of the segments were produced in the aftermath of Sept. 11. Many of the pieces focus on the ethics and morality of war with Iraq. Also included are reports on Hindu-Muslim conflict in India and truth and reconciliation in Sierra Leone. Together the segments serve as an introduction to the ethics of war and peace and a starting point for discussion about religion, war and international conflict
