Abstract
In this lecture, Michael Sells explores the role of religious narratives, symbols, institutions, and beliefs in motivating and justifying acts of genocide and "ethnic cleansing." He also discusses the potential for religion to contribute to the post-conflict healing of Bosnian society and considers the perspective of influential Bosnian scholars and peacemakers who suggest that Bosnia's near destruction and remarkable survival offer both a warning and a hope for the post-Cold War world.
