Abstract

This study provides an analytical discussion for the issue of religious fundamentalism and its
relevance to conflict, in its broader sense. It is stressed that religious fundamentalism manifests itself in two
ways: nonviolent intolerance and violent intolerance. The sources of both types of intolerance and their
connection to conflict are addressed and discussed in detail. Further research is also suggested on conditions
connecting religion to nonviolent intolerance so as to cope with the problem more effectively.
