Religion and Post-Conflict Statebuilding: Roman Catholic and Sunni Islamic Perspectives

'Religion and Post-Conflict State building is a much-needed contribution to the study of religion and politics. The book offers a useful review of the existing literature on state-building, successfully points out the importance of religion and religious institutions, and consequently opens the floor for future research. And finally, most simply but perhaps most importantly, it convinces the reader that in studying the political aftermath of conflict, religion matters.'
- Dr. Marko Vekovic, Journal of Politics, Religion and Ideology

'Dragovic's book is thus an extremely important contribution because it moves beyond questions about the utility of religion for state-building and inquires about the actual perspectives of two religious traditions—Roman Catholicism and Sunni Islam—on the question of state-building.'
- Dr. Laurie Johnston, Review of Faith and International Affairs

'The author's awareness of various theological views within both Sunni Islam and Catholicism, along with his skill in analysing contemporary issues in conflict resolution and state-building based on theological principles, distinguishes this book from other literature in the field.'
