This comprehensive introduction explores the landscape of
contemporary Islam. Written by a distinguished team of scholars,
it:
- provides broad overviews of the developments, events, people
and movements that have defined Islam in the three majority-Muslim
regions
- traces the connections between traditional Islamic institutions
and concerns, and their modern manifestations and transformations.
How are medieval ideas, policies and practices refashioned to
address modern circumstances
- investigates new themes and trends that are shaping the modern
Muslim experience such as gender, fundamentalism, the media and
secularisation
- offers case studies of Muslims and Islam in dynamic interaction
with different societies.
"
Islam in the Modern World" includes illustrations, summaries,
discussion points and suggestions for further reading that will aid
understanding and revision. Additional resources are provided via a
companion website.
