Studying Muslim fundamentalisms, this book compares key movements,
examining their commonalities, differences, and intricate
relations, as well as their achievements and failures. Muslim
fundamentalisms have the sympathy of approximately half of the
Muslim population in the world. Yet, they are divided among
themselves and are in a constant state of controversy. The research
dwells on the leading fundamentalist movements, such as the Muslim
Brothers, Tablighi-Jama'at, al-Qaeda, and ISIS, and illustrates how
differently they think about the West and its culture, democracy,
and women's presence in the public sphere. By identifying these
trends, and studying them comparatively, the book enables the
interested reader to make sense of the plethora of fundamentalist
movements, which are otherwise lumped together by the media and are
barely discernible for the reader. Whereas most studies of Muslim
fundamentalism focus on organizational or militant actions that the
movements perform, this study concentrates on their efforts to
Islamize society through everyday life in a peaceful manner.
Identifying the different strands of Muslim fundamentalisms, the
book will be a key resource to a wide range of readers including
researchers and students interested in politics, religious, Islamic
and Middle Eastern Studies.
