	abstract = {This book explores how media and religion combine to play a role in promoting peace and inciting violence. It analyses a wide range of media - from posters, cartoons and stained glass to websites, radio and film - and draws on diverse examples from around the world, including Iran, Rwanda and South Africa.

Part One considers how various media forms can contribute to the creation of violent environments: by memorialising past hurts; by instilling fear of the {\textquoteleft}other{\textquoteright}; by encouraging audiences to fight, to die or to kill neighbours for an apparently greater good.
Part Two explores how film can bear witness to past acts of violence, how film-makers can reveal the search for truth, justice and reconciliation, and how new media can become sites for non-violent responses to terrorism and government oppression. To what extent can popular media arts contribute to imagining and building peace, transforming weapons into art, swords into ploughshares?},
