A record of the fourth "Building Bridges" seminar held in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, May 15-18, 2005, an annual symposium on Muslim-Christian relations cosponsored by the president's office of Georgetown University and the Archbishop's Office of the Church of England. Includes 15 chapters examining three topics: faith and national identity in Christian and Muslim perspective; governance and justice in Christian and Muslim perspective; and caring together for the world we share. This volume presents the texts of the public lectures which addressed each of these topics, together with regional presentations on issues of citizenship, religious believing and belonging, and the relationship between government and religion--both from the immediate situation of Bosnia-Herzegovina and from three context further afield: Britain, Malaysia, and West Africa. Participants included Tariq Ramadan, professor of Islam Studies, University of Freibourg; John Langan, SJ, Joseph Cardinal Bernardin Professor of Catholic Social Thought, Georgetown; Frances Young, Edward Cadbury Professor of Theology, University of Birmingham; and Mona Siddiqui, senior lecturer in Arabic and Islamic Studies, Glasgow University. The first three Building Bridges seminars were published by Church House, the trade publishing arm of the Church of England.
