David Little came to the Divinity School in 1999 and was, from 1999 to 2005, the T. J. Dermot Dunphy Professor of the Practice in Religion, Ethnicity, and International Conflict. Before coming to HDS, he was senior scholar in religion, ethics, and human rights at the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) in Washington, D.C., where he directed the Working Group on Religion, Ideology, and Peace, which conducted a study of religion, nationalism, and intolerance in reference to the United Nations Declaration on the Elimination of Intolerance and Discrimination. From 1996 to 1998, he was on the State Department Advisory Committee on Religious Freedom Abroad. He writes in the areas of moral philosophy, moral theology, history of ethics, and the sociology of religion, with an interest in comparative ethics, human rights, religious liberty, and ethics and international affairs. He is author with Scott W. Hibbard of Islamic Activism and U.S. Foreign Policy, editor of Peacemakers in Action: Profiles of Religion in Conflict Resolution, and author of two volumes in the USIP series on religion, nationalism, and intolerance.
