5t 'In a field that has quickly become overcrowded with repetitions, Kraetzschmar and Rivetti have put together a series of original contributions on an important but understudied aspect of the Arab Spring uprisings, namely the consequences of the uprisings on Islamist activism across the Middle East.

5t 'In a field that has quickly become overcrowded with repetitions, Kraetzschmar and Rivetti have put together a series of original contributions on an important but understudied aspect of the Arab Spring uprisings, namely the consequences of the uprisings on Islamist activism across the Middle East. I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to better understand Islam's engagement with politics in the Middle East in the post-2011 era.' Mehran Kamrava, Georgetown University-Qatar Scrutinises the political strategies and ideological evolution of Islamist actors and forces following the Arab uprisings What role does political Islam play in the genealogy of protests as an instrument to resist neo-liberalism and authoritarian rule? How can we account for the internal conflicts among Islamist players after the 2011/2012 Arab uprisings? How can we assess the performance of Islamist parties in power? What geopolitical reconfigurations have the uprisings created, and what opportunities have arisen for Islamists to claim a stronger political role in domestic and regional politics? These questions are addressed in this book, which looks at the dynamics in place during the aftermath of the Arab uprisings in a wide range of countries across the Middle East and North Africa. Key Features . 22 case studies explain the diverse trajectories of political Islam since 2011 in Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Qatar, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey and Yemen . Provides a comprehensive analysis of political Islam covering intra-Islamist pluralisation and conflict, governance and accountability issues, 'secular-Islamist' contention, responses to neo-liberal development and the resurgence of sectarianism and militancy . Offers a set of innovative approaches to the study of political Islam in the post-Arab spring era that open new possibilities for theory development in the field Hendrik Kraetzschmar is an Associate Professor in the Comparative Politics of the Middle East and North Africa at the University of Leeds.
