The essays in this collection examine the emergence of Islam as a
force in today's international political arena. Driven by a concern
to understand factors leading to, and the implications of, this
heightened political profile the contributors go beyond polemics
and apologetics. The book critically examines some of the major
events, movements and trends in the Islamic world over the past
fifty years and their impact on the international scene. Reflecting
the diversity and heterogeneity of the Muslim world, the book
covers issues including: -the challenge of Islamism to the Muslim
world -the use of Islam as a political tool on the international
scene -Islam's contribution to the theory and practice of global
finance -Islam's role in gender discourse -Islam's articulations in
the Indian Sub-continent, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and the Arab
world. Very little of the current literature deals with political
Islam globally, and very few books go much beyond the Middle East
and its terrorist groups. This volume fills that gap, providing a
compelling cross-national, cross cultural and interdisciplinary
analysis of Islam as a potent political force.
