Islam in the West V4 (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.The final volume in the collection ('Politics and Society') gathers the best work on, among other things, studies of Muslim involvement in political life; Muslim presence in the public sphere; the media coverage of Islam; and issues of integration and so-called 'Islamophobia'. Islamic radicalism, particularly amongst Islamist and Salafi groups, is also dealt with here.
