The Group of 20’s Religion Forum: How much is too much balancing? A conversation with Ahmet Kuru

Religious leaders gather in Bali this week for their first Religion Forum 20 summit (R20) under the auspices of the Group of 20 or G-20 that brings together the world's largest economies. The religious leaders are meeting two weeks before the G-20's political leaders are scheduled to gather in Indonesia, the group's current chair, for what potentially promises to be an acrimonious get-together attended by the presidents of the United States, Russia, and China. The religious summit is likely to find it easier to agree on a common language than their political leaders, but that may be where the easy part ends. I'll be discussing with acclaimed political scientist Ahmet Kuru the issues that undergird the gathering.
