Roots of Theological Anti-Semitism

Exclusionary Violence
A comprehensive examination of pre-Nazi violence against Jews in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Germany
International Handbook of Violence Research

Negotiating the Sacred
This cross-disciplinary exploration of the role of the sacred, blasphemy and sacrilege in a multicultural society brings together philosophers, theologians, lawyers, historians, curators, anthropologists and sociologists, as well as Christian, Jewish and Islamic and secular perspectives.

In addition, it provides original research data on blasphemy, sacrilege and religious tolerance from a range of disciplines.
