About the Book
This book is an international collection of reflections, statements, and resources responding to the United Nations call for a new “dialogue among civilizations,” a theme taken up by the United Nation’s Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in relation to its work on behalf of a “Culture of Peace.” These contributions were occasioned by the 11 September 2002 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City. They come from members around the world of Pax Romana / International Catholic Movement for Intellectual & Cultural Affairs (ICMICA), and were gathered by the US federation of Pax Romana / ICMICA.
