Since the events of 9/11, Salafism in the Middle East has often
been perceived as fixed, rigid and even violent, but this
assumption overlooks the quietist ideology that characterises many
Salafi movements. Through an exploration of Salafism in Jordan,
Joas Wagemakers presents the diversity among quietist Salafis on a
range of ideological and political issues, particularly their
relationship with the state. He expounds a detailed analysis of
Salafism as a whole, whilst also showing how and why quietist
Salafism in Jordan - through ideological tendencies, foreign
developments, internal conflicts, regime involvement, theological
challenges and regional turmoil - transformed from an independent
movement into a politically domesticated one. Essential for
graduate students and academic researchers interested in Middle
Eastern politics and Salafism, this major contribution to the study
of Salafism debunks stereotypes and offers insight into the
development of a trend that still remains a mystery to many.
