- catalog abstract ""Falk argues that the failure to achieve what he terms "humane global governance" is partially due to the exclusion of religious and spiritual dimensions of human experience from the study and practice of global politics. The book begins with a section on dominant world order trends and tendencies with respect to global governance. This is followed by consideration of the extent to which these recent world order trends that were shaped by the historical situation at the end of the second millenium are also creating new, unexpected openings for religious and spiritual energies, a development that has problematic, as well as encouraging, aspects. This religious resurgence is also discussed as part of the double-edged relevance of religion to global governance. The final section supports the inclusion of emancipatory religious and spiritual perspectives in world order thinking and engagements, along with a discussion of the potential benefits of such a perspective."--Jacket.".
