Western Dominance and Political Islam

Challenge and Response

Beschreibung

This book challenges prevalent Western media and popular interpretations of Islam. Through a political and historical analysis of Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan - countries that represent the religious, ethnic, and ideological spectrum of the Muslim world - it explores whether or not Islam as a political religion and civilization can provide a preferable alternative to Western capitalist democracy.
