The contributors state that societies create ‘others‘ through deliberate acts of selection over a period of time. The objective of the process of othering is to deny rights and privileges that one sets for one‘s own group. This volume affirms that central to the understanding of violence in any society is the understanding of othering processes. Violence and nonviolence are influenced by the nature of othering processes as well as the kinds of others in a society. Groups engaged in mutual othering are also the ones that are often involved in violent relationships. .Renowned scholars from diverse fields provide multidisciplinary perspectives on violence and othering, discussing the concepts of violence and nonviolence in multicultural societies, communal harmony, constructions of the other, truth commissions, state censorship of ‘sensitive‘ issues, fundamentalism and secularism in multifaith societies, and specific cases from recent violence-prone areas.
