Abstract

Religion and conflict are the social phenomena that strongly exert their influence on human societies, both on their structure and changes. At the same time, they provoke very deep emotional reactions of individuals and groups. Therefore, the problem of the relation between religion and conflict attracts the attention of various social sciences: sociology, political science, conflict resolution, etc. In this paper the authors present an analysis of some of the contemporary views that deal with the problem. They point out the reach and the limits of the analysed views, claiming that a conflict must be understood and explained before it is solved.
