- A Guide to Islamic Society, Politics and Law

Bag om Islam in Perspective (RLE Politics of Islam)

There has been a significant upsurge of western interest in the political manifestations and significance of Islam, fuelled by the notion of Islamic `revival¿. As the author of this book argues, one result of this interest has been the development of a view of Islam as monolithic and implacable. He takes a broad view of the intellectual and cultural history of Islam, emphasising the extraordinary diversity of Islamic societies and the ways in which the ideal is often pragmatically adapted to reality. In this wider social and historical context, the nature of Islamic revival is then reassessed.
