This history of The G20 Interfaith Forum (2018-2023) during unsettled times charts a possible pathway to a post-Western world that embraces norms of sustainability and human rights that are embedded in the nexus of global politics and world religions.

If you are worried about the future of the earth and her inhabitants, then this book is for you. Authors from East and West document collaborative efforts that identify diverse faith-based ethical responses to global challenges. The history of this cosmopolitan fragile partnership with governments illuminates a positive pathway that affirms human rights and promotes sustainable solutions. We employ a new interfaith model built on the political philosophy of loyal opposition to demonstrate an openness to dissent and diversity as a way of cultivating trust. Contentious issues are addressed from climate change and geopolitics to human rights and religious freedom.

Sherrie M. Steiner, Ph.D. (1998), Washington State University, is Associate Professor of Sociology at Purdue University Fort Wayne. Her publications on environment and religion include Moral Pressure for Responsible Globalization: Religious Diplomacy in the Age of the Anthropocene (2018, Brill). James Taylor Christie, D. Min. (2001), University of Toronto, is Professor Emeritus at The University of Winnipeg. His work focuses on Christian Ecumenism, Inter-religious diplomacy, and global governance. He is co-editor with Dr. Steiner of Religious Engagement as Loyal Opposition.
