Islam has been a subject of intense debate for the last few years all over
the world. The discipline of International Relations has been also
grappling with the task of how to conceptualize Islam in the system of
International Relations. The symposium examines how International
Relations has been dealing with Islam in the past and suggests how it
might address some key issues more fruitfully as a discipline as well
as for the purpose of jointly nurturing a more peaceful and yet more
just order.
