During the 1940s and 1950s, Islamic reformism flourished in Iran.
This book examines how Iranian Islamic groups came to rethink
traditional accounts of religion and nurture a politicized version
of Islam. The author shows how similar social and political
circumstances, but different family and educational backgrounds
gave rise to socialist, democratic/scientific and
fundamentalist/militant reinterpretations of Islam. What was common
among these groups was a tendency towards politicizing the
religion. A significant contribution to discussions of contemporary
political thought in Iran, this book will be of interest to
researchers and academics of Islamic political though and Iranian
politics and history.
