Globalized Islam: The Search for a New Ummah (CERI Series in Comparative Politics and International Studies)

by OlivierRoy (Author)

Synopsis

Argues that Islamic revival, or "re-Islamization," results from the efforts of westernized Muslims to assert their identity in a non-Muslim context. This book provides a comparison of several transnational movements, whether peaceful, like Tablighi Jama'at and the Islamic brotherhoods, or violent, like Al Qaeda.
