As the topic of political Islam gains increased visibility in international politics and current affairs, it has become more difficult to navigate the vast literature that is devoted to explaining this phenomenon.

With detailed introductory chapters and clear presentation of existing literature, thematically-arranged sections cover: * modern understandings and explanations of Islamism * the emergence and development of Islamist groups * political responses to the phenomenon * democracy and democratization * multiculturalism * political violence and terrorism * globalization * the future of political Islam. This overview of political Islam will help students at all levels to appreciate its many manifestations and dimensions.A relevant text to introductory courses on history, international affairs, government and sociology, this reader is an essential tool for students of the Middle East, Muslim politics, religion in politics and Islamism. |
