Hardcover. Zustand: Good. "In recent decades secularism, or the separation of religion and state, has become increasingly questioned by various religious movements and organisations in different parts of the world. The aim of this book is to present casestudies of such groups - which in the West are often referred to as 'fundamentalist' - in a global perspective. Special attempts have been made to focus on movements which have not previously been given much attention in comparative works on 'fundamentalism'."
