Description
The papers in this volume form a record of the 1993 Parliament of the World's Religions, which was one of the largest interfaith gatherings ever held. Representatives from minority, ethnic and tribal religions took the podium as equals alongside representatives from the world's largest religious traditions. This volume contains major addresses and reflections of this parliament, set in context by an introduction and conclusion by the editors.
