This book examines the role that political Islam plays in processes
of democratization in the Muslim world, detailing the political
processes that facilitate the collective learning of democratic
ways of solving the practical problems of those polities.
Democratization in the Muslim World represents an important
contribution to the debate on democratization and political Islam
that emphasises the synergetic effects and global reach of both
Islamist and democratic politics. It comes to terms with the
problematic relationship between Islam and democracy in the
uncertain post-Cold War, post-9/11 world order by highlighting the
malleability of Islamic discourses and of its institutional
resources, as well as the diversity of the political strategies of
incumbent regimes to remain in power. It combines key theoretical
issues and country-specific studies of some of the most relevant
Muslim polities of the post-Cold War and post-9/11 era.
This text was previously published as a special issue of
Democratization and will be of interest to students of Middle East
politics, governance, democracy, and human rights.
