War and Peace in Judaism, Christianity and Islam: The Influence of Texts and Commentaries Throughout History
A series of workshops for fifteen school teachers (6th through 12th grade) in San Diego school districts on the complex role that religion has played in shaping the causes and conduct of war, as well as in laying the foundations for peace.
This project will engage middle and high school history teachers in an intellectually rigorous exploration of the history of religious thinking on war and peace in the three monotheistic tradisions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
