SUMMARY:Book Talk : Pathways Towards Lasting Peace
DESCRIPTION:Peace and Reconciliation in International and Islamic Law presents a lucid analysis, observing how the sources of international law and Islamic Law help or hinder the pathway towards peace and reconciliation in selected conflict theatres: namely, Afghanistan, Palestine-Israel and Kashmir. These theatres have been selected as the depiction, interpretation and understanding of Islamic law is often misconstrued and mis-represented across many mainstream media platforms, which leads to indignation from its normative faith adherents. Also, Islamic-based paradigms play a pivotal role in the day-to-day governance and social practices of these regions. Juxtaposed within this matrix, non-state actors use religion as a pretext to engage and partake in acts of aggression against the other. Peace and Reconciliation in International and Islamic Law decouples the narratives that are put forward by such actors using the litmus test of international law, Islamic Law and humanitarian norms.
