This updated, second edition of the Handbook of Political Islam
covers a range of political actors that use Islam to advance their
cause. While they share the ultimate vision of establishing a
political system governed by Islam, their tactics and methods can
be very different. Capturing this diversity, this volume also sheds
light on some of the less-known experiences from South East Asia to
North Africa. Drawing on expertise from some of the top scholars in
the world, the chapters examine the main issues surrounding
political Islam across the world, including: Theoretical
foundations of political Islam Historical background Geographical
spread of Islamist movements Political strategies adopted by
Islamist groups Terrorism Attitudes towards democracy Relations
between Muslims and the West in the international sphere Challenges
of integration Gender relations Capturing the geographical spread
of Islamism and the many manifestations of this political
phenomenon make this book a key resource for students and
researchers interested in political Islam, Muslim affairs and the
Middle East.
