"In this astute meditation on the sacred texts of our multiple traditions, the interreligious spiral of hostility and hospitality toward the Other takes on a fresh transparency. The bottomless challenge of difference comes in this conversation into an energizing connectivity of spirit." —Catherine Keller, Professor of Constructive Theology, Drew University Theological School "This volume is a compelling anthology that marks a significant contribution to the field. Bringing together a diverse array of voices, it combines rigorous textual scholarship with a keen focus on the practical relevance of interreligious engagement, fostering deep understanding and dialogue across religious traditions." —Carolyn Roncolato, Director of Academic Initiatives, Interfaith America) "This volume shows the global diversity of perspectives on interfaith exclusiveness/inclusiveness. Anyone interested in the fundamental issues of religious pluralism and openness will find this book to be very helpful." —John O. Voll, Professor Emeritus of Islamic History at Georgetown University This work delves into the fundamental issue of Otherness, from both sacred texts and communal experiences. While the title adopts the dyad of “inclusion” or “exclusion”, these analyses broadly reflect nuanced critical considerations. Filled with profound psychological, theological, sociological, anthropological, and ethical dimensions, experiencing the Other is richly expressed within religious traditions. This book is a must for scholars interested in a multi-disciplinary approach to inclusivity and religion.
