| Summary: | Though its societies and economies have undergone sweeping changes, high levels of violence have remained a persistent problem in Latin America. This book offers resources to understand how religion has perceived and addressed different forms of violence, from the political and state violence of the 1970s and 1980s to the drug traffickers and youth gangs of today. In contrast to many other studies of violence, this book explores its moral dimensions and the real consequences of human agency.-- |
