7 Foreword This book examines the rise of multifaith initiatives to counter global risks of terrorism and climate change at the turn of the twenty fi rst century. Recent increases in religious diversity in most societies has led to the rise of multifaith engagement to promote healthy interreligious relations and has brought diverse religious groups together in partnerships designed to address major issues confronting humanity. As James A. Beckford notes, most contemporary sociological studies focus on negative or controversial aspects of religion up until now there has been little sociological research on the positive peacebuilding and social capital enhancing aspects of religion nor has there been such an in-depth qualitative study of the multifaith movement. Multifaith relations in the twenty- fi rst century have moved from marginal activities engaged in by a boutique minority of liberal Christians and a few others to genuinely interreligious activities collaboratively conducted by people from a wide variety of religious origins and from diverse orientations within religious groups. Embodied understanding about how different religions work for those that practice them is essential to intergroup respect and harmony. Mere textbook learning will not do. As religious voices return to the public sphere, those who develop and apply social policy need to not just be aware of religious difference but to have the ability to respect and work with different beliefs and practices. Presuppositions that a secular voice will provide an objective or inclusive way to deal with diversity are no longer tenable. The notion that all religions are essentially the same quickly comes unstuck. In this context Anna Halafoff contributes new knowledge by examining multifaith engagement through the lens of social movement and cosmopolitan theory. This book is important not only for sociologists of religion, as it provides a missing sociological narrative about how the multifaith movement is a product of contemporary sociological developments, but it is also critical reading for multifaith practitioners and policy makers. Halafoff provides a helpful history of the multifaith movement including a review of the movement s principle aims. This book also assists the reader to appreciate the impact that social, cultural and environmental issues have had on multifaith activities. Many people mistakenly think that multifaith initiatives are a post 9/11 phenomenon, vii
8 viii Foreword however they need to better understand the multifaith movement in order to appreciate the different ways it has worked and how the focus of this movement has changed over time. The netpeace framework Halafoff develops stresses the need for communication and collaboration across multiple sectors, including religion and state, in response to common crises. It also provides a critical framework useful in comparing the ways different societies manage religious diversity, and how societies differ in the ways social issues are de fi ned and multifaith responses are constructed. Finally, while frequently dismissed as a soft option, Halafoff explains how multifaith engagement is an important and effective part of countering violent extremism strategies, stressing the need for governments to partner with religious communities to better understand grievances and address them according to cosmopolitan principles the key here is communicative action embodied in real relationships. Successful negotiation of life in an increasingly globalised world requires that all citizens, agencies and governments realise just how interconnected we are. With this comes the implication that it is more necessary than ever to learn to live peacefully and respectfully with one another. Societies and the religions that operate within them must learn the value of respecting the rights of all others, even those who differ on matters of faith and ethics. This book will help to make this need a reality. UNESCO Chair in Interreligious and Intercultural Relations Asia Paci fi c, Monash University Gary D. Bouma
9 Acknowledgements This book could not have been completed without the assistance of the multifaith leaders who participated in this study, my academic colleagues, and my family. A total of 56 multifaith leaders from Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States of America were interviewed for this project. I would like to thank each one of them for their time and interest in my research. I was particularly moved by their kindness, wisdom, generosity and commitment to the multifaith movement. These qualities enabled them to welcome me into their homes and of fi ces, and to share their valuable insights with me, in the hope that this research may be able to provide a greater understanding of the global multifaith movement. I am also very grateful to Professor Gary D. Bouma and Dr. Jo Lindsay for their guidance, wisdom, tireless enthusiasm, and good humour. Professor Rae Frances, all of the staff at the Monash University s School of Political and Social Inquiry, and Deakin University s Centre for Citizenship and Globalisation, also expressed a strong interest in my research and provided words of encouragement. Thank you in particular to Associate Professor Pete Lentini, Professor Greg Barton, Bill Kelly, Rachel Woodlock, Ela Ogru, Sue Stevenson, Professor Fethi Mansouri and Cayla Edwards. Finally, I must thank my wonderful son Cosmo and my wise mother Irina. I could not have undertaken this project, or completed this book, without the patience, understanding and support of everyone mentioned above. ix
