Scrutinises the political strategies and ideological evolution of
Islamist actors and forces following the Arab uprisingsWhat role
does political Islam play in the genealogy of protests as an
instrument to resist neo-liberalism and authoritarian rule? How can
we account for the internal conflicts among Islamist players after
the 2011/2012 Arab uprisings? How can we assess the performance of
Islamist parties in power? What geopolitical reconfigurations have
the uprisings created, and what opportunities have arisen for
Islamists to claim a stronger political role in domestic and
regional politics? These questions are addressed in this book,
which looks at the dynamics in place during the aftermath of the
Arab uprisings in a wide range of countries across the Middle East
and North Africa.Key features22 case studies explain the diverse
trajectories of political Islam since 2011 in Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq,
Iran, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Qatar, Syria, Tunisia,
Turkey and YemenProvides a comprehensive analysis of political
Islam covering intra-Islamist pluralisation and conflict,
governance and accountability issues, 'secular-Islamist'
contention, responses to neo-liberal development and the resurgence
of sectarianism and militancyOffers a set of innovative approaches
to the study of political Islam in the post-Arab spring era that
open new possibilities for theory development in the
