Transnational Political Islam: Religion, Ideology and Power (Critical Studies on Islam)

Description:

Political Islam, to be distinguished from Islam as a culture or a religion, and from Islamic Fundamentalism, is an increasingly important feature of the western political scene. The ideologies of Political Islam reflect the fact that some of their adherents live and work within a Western socio-political context. Although Political Islam has been widely written about in Muslim countries, very little has been published the West, and this book attempts to redress that imbalance. With a range of outstanding contributors that includes academics and human rights advocates this book tackles the diversity of Islamist thinking and practice in various Western countries and explores their transnational connections in both East and West. The book analyses developments in Islamist thinking and activities, and their connections to the latest global political and economic trends, and discusses future evolutions of the ideology and its manifestations.


Review

This is a solid selection of original articles, including several unique case studies on Muslims and politics in Europe. In contrast to the usual fare, which is all too often a mile wide and an inch deep, these are solid, serious, and provocative pieces that open new vistas of understanding and ask novel questions. This is precisely the collection of new pieces that the informed reader will want in hand as he or she grapples with understanding Political Islam as a transnational phenomenon. - Augustus Richard Norton, Professor, Boston University

'A very stimulating study that successfully and productively combines a discourse analysis approach with socio-political investigation of the world situation after September 11th' - Prof. Dr. Nasr H. Abu Zayd, Islamic Studies, Leiden University
