Muslim societies are struggling under the need for modernization
and the drift towards Islamic fundamentalism. The balance between
these two forces is struck differently in the various Muslim
societies depending upon the constellation of groups as historical
legacies. However, the tension is real. In this work, Jan-Erik Lane
and Hamadi Redissi look at the underlying social consequences of
religious beliefs to account for the political differences between
major civilizations of the world against a background of the rise
of modern capitalism. Offering a timely new appraisal of the
political and social impact of Islam, this expanded second edition
of Religion and Politics has been fully updated in line with new
events and will be welcomed by political scientists and historians
alike. In a readable and accessible style, this thought-provoking
work raises the question of whether the tenets of Islam might be
reconciled with the requirements of post-modernity.
