This essay deals with the missionary work of the Society of Jesus in today’s Micronesia from the seventeenth to the twentieth century. Although the Jesuit missionaries wanted to reach Japan and other Pacific islands, such as the Palau and Caroline archipelagos, the crown encouraged them to stay in the Marianas until 1769 (when the Society of Jesus was expelled from the Philippines) to evangelize the native Chamorros as well as to reinforce the Spanish presence on the fringes of the Pacific empire. In 1859, a group of Jesuit missionaries returned to the Philippines, but they never officially set foot on the Marianas during the nineteenth century. It was not until the twentieth century that they went back to Micronesia, taking charge of the mission on the Northern Marianas along with the Caroline and Marshall Islands, thus returning to one of the cradles of Jesuit martyrdom in Oceania.

The book discusses the transformative role of religion in situations of violent conflict. It considers both the constructive and destructive sides of religious belief and particularly explores ways in which religion(s) may contribute to transforming conflict into peace. This volume analyses the role of religion in its current manifestations and provides alternative views of it. It is concerned with the role of religion as a source of conflict that often takes violent forms, thus contributing significantly to current problems. Attention also focuses on questions of peace from the perspective of the religious traditions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. A number of essays actualize a vision for peace based on religion and situate visions for peace in the wider context of human security. All chapters consider the policy implications of the theoretical and practical perspectives offered on questions of conflict and peace. The most important documents that have emerged from a variety of religious groups, notably those represented in the book, outlining their view on issues of peace and human rights are collected here, showing how religious believers have engaged with questions similar to those suggested by the principles of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Die Beiträge dieses Bandes sind an der Schnittstelle zwischen Kirchen- und Geistesgeschichte anzusiedeln. Während sich im hohen und späten Mittelalter autoritative Instanzen vervielfachen, mit den magistri an den Universitäten neue theologische Kompetenzen heranwachsen, aber auch mit den neuen charismatischen Führern, Propheten und Mystikern den alten Autoritäten Konkurrenz erwächst, entsteht für das kirchliche Establishment, insonderheit das Papsttum, Rechtfertigungsdruck. Jede Autorität hat einen Wahrheitsanspruch. Die Frage nach dem Wesen der Wahrheit muss neu gestellt, die Dialektik von Autorität und Wahrheit neu überdacht werden. Mit Beiträgen von: David Burr, Duane Henderson, Isabel Iribarren, Deeana Klepper, Robert E. Lerner, Elsa Marmursztejn, Alexander Patschovsky, Sylvain Piron, Gian Luca Potestà, Roberto Rusconi, Pavlina Rychterova, Felicitas Schmieder.
