This book focuses on Islamism as a political ideology by taking up
the case study of Jamaat-e-Islami in contemporary India and
Bangladesh. The book will address how, in a contemporary globalized
world, Islamism constructs an antagonistic frontier and how it
mobilizes people behind its political project. The book also deals
with the Islamist critique of neoliberal economic policies and
'western cultural globalization'. The book examines the dynamics
from the formation of Islamist politics for the struggle for
hegemony to failure to become a hegemonic force in Bangladesh. The
contradiction between Islamic universalism/Islamist populism, on
one hand, and a politics of Muslim particularism in India, on the
other, is revealed in this study. Finally, this book traces the
contemporary crisis of Islamist populism in providing an
alternative to neoliberalism.
