Rethinking Islam and Human Rights

Practice and Knowledge Production in the Case of Hizmet

Beschreibung

In Rethinking Islam and Human Rights, leading Islam and human rights scholar Ozcan Keles examines how social movement practice unknowingly and unintentionally produces Islamic knowledge on human rights (i.e. change) in both scriptural reinterpretation and societal disposition, through a focus on the interaction between the two.
