Pursuing Just Peace: An Overview and Case Studies for Faith-Based
Peacebuilders (Mark M. Rogers, Tom Bamat, and Julie Ideh, eds.,
Baltimore: CRS, 2008) is a practical resource for a wide community of
peacebuilding practitioners and those grappling with injustice and
conflict. Seven case studies describe concrete initiatives within
highly diverse contexts and with a variety of organizations, approaches
and entry points in peacebuilding. An introductory essay by David
Steele provides a general overview and literature review for
faith-based peacebuilding, discusses processes, and describes key roles
that faith-based actors can play.
