Islam in the West V3 (Critical Concepts in Islamic Studies) - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

In recent decades, the number of Muslims in the West has increased rapidly, and interesting transformations of Islam have taken place-to some extent with repercussions in Islamic or predominantly Muslim countries in Asia and Africa. This new Major Work from Routledge helps to make sense of the burgeoning scholarship in this area.Volume III ('Culture and Education') deals with Islam in cultural fields like music and art, as well as with the production of various kinds of Muslim literature, such as poetry and theology. And studies on educational issues cover both specifically Islamic schooling (e.g. Quranic schools and the education of Imams) and how Islam is taught in state schools.
