In this groundbreaking study, Seyyed Vali Reza Nasr examines the
origins, historical development, and political strategies of one of
the oldest and most influential Islamic revival movements, the
Jama'at-i Islami of Pakistan. He focuses on the inherent tension
between the movement's idealized vision of the nation as a holy
community based in Islamic law and its political agenda of
socioeconomic change for Pakistani society.
Nasr's work goes beyond the exploration of a single party to
examine the diverse sociopolitical roots of contemporary Islamic
revivalism, challenging many of the standard interpretations about
political expressions of Islam.
