Akbarzadeh and Saeed explore one of the most challenging issues
facing the Muslim world: the Islamisation of political power. They
present a comparative analysis of Muslim societies in West, South,
Central and South East Asia and highlight the immediacy of the
challenge for the political leadership in those societies. Islam
and Political Legitimacy contends that the growing reliance on
Islamic symbolism across the Muslim world, even in states that have
had a strained relationship with Islam, has contributed to the
evolution of Islam as a social and cultural factor to an entrenched
political force. The geographic breadth of this book offers readers
a nuanced appraisal of political Islam that transcends parochial
eccentricities. Contributors to this volume examine the evolving
relationship between Islam and political power in Bangladesh,
Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan.
Researchers and students of political Islam and radicalism in the
Muslim world will find Islam and Political Legitimacy of special
interest. This is a welcome addition to the rich literature on the
politics of the contemporary Muslim world.
