This book is a theoretically and historically informed exploration
of 'secularism' in Muslim contexts. It does this through a critical
assessment of an influential tradition of thinking about Islam and
secularism, derived from the work of anthropologist Talal Asad and
his followers. The study employs the tools of comparative
historical sociology and sociology of knowledge to engage with the
assumptions of Asadian theory. Ultimately, Enayat argues against
nativist assertions drawn from the experience of Western modernity
and provides a qualified defense of secularism.
