Authors critically examine Girard's assertion about the connection between group formation, religion, and 'scapegoating' violence. These insights, Girard maintained, have their source in biblical revelation. Are there parallels in other faith traditions, especially Islam? To this end, Muslim scholars and scholars of Mimetic Theory have examined the hypothesis of an 'Abrahamic Revolution.' This is the claim that Judaism, Christianity, and Islam each share in a spiritual and ethical historical 'breakthrough:' a move away from scapegoating violence, and towards a sense of justice for the innocent victim. 000890249 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed May 9, 2019). 000890249 60010 $$aGirard, René,$$d1923-2015. 000890249 650_0 $$aViolence$$xReligious aspects$$xIslam. 000890249 650_0 $$aNonviolence$$xReligious aspects$$xIslam. 000890249 7001_ $$aKirwan, Michael,$$eeditor. 000890249 7001_ $$aAchtar, Ahmad,$$eauthor. 000890249 852__ $$bebk 000890249 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-05695-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890249 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890249$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890249 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890249 980__ $$aBIB 000890249 982__ $$aEbook 000890249 983__ $$aOnline 000890249 994__ $$a92$$bISE
