Since the end of the Cold War, and especially since 9/11, religion has become an increasingly important factor of personal and group identification.
Focusing on the predominantly Muslim Yoruba Town of Ede, the authors challenge the assumption that Religious difference automatically leads to conflict: in south-west Nigeria, Muslims, Christians and traditionalists have.
Based on an African case study, this book calls for new ways of thinking about diversity that go "Beyond Religious tolerance".
