Description
Byline: Arshi Saleem Hashmi Fear of the 'religious other' is not a new phenomenon. One finds a number of accounts of conflicts with religious dimensions in which this 'religious other' is demonized. Whether we look to the Crusades, European colonialism, or the aftermath of 9/11, it is clear that fear and ignorance continue to dominate public perceptions and portrayals of them. Yet, throughout history, there have also been attempts to engage and understand them, whether due to intellectual curiosity, the desire to consolidate an empire, or simply to promote mutual understanding towards the goal of peaceful coexistence and, sometimes, cooperation.
