Islam in Global Politics: Conflict and Cross-Civilizational Bridging

Autor Bassam Tibi
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 feb 2012
Reaching beyond traditionally politicised scholarship to provide a unique perspective on the place of religion and culture in global and local politics, this book examines the impact of Islam on 'civilizational' relations between different groups and polities.
Bassam Tibi takes a highly original approach to the topic of religion in world politics, exploring the place of Islam in society and its frequent distortion in world politics to the more radical Islamism. Looking at how this becomes an immediate source of tension and conflict between the secular and the religious, Tibi rejects the 'clash of civilizations' theory and argues for the revival of Islamic humanism to help bridge the gap. Chapters expand on:
  • inter-civilizational conflict in global politics
  • dialogue between religious and secular, East and West
  • western concepts of Islamism
  • euro-Islam and the Islamic diaspora in Europe
  • Islamic humanism as a tool for bridging civilizations.
Shedding new light on the highly topical subject of Islam in politics and society, this book is an essential read for scholars and students of international politics, Islamic studies and conflict resolution.

Descriere

This book examines global and local politics and how Islam impacts on "civilizational" relations between different groups and polities. In particular he examines how Islamism (as opposed to Islam) becomes an immediate source of tension and conflict between the secular and the religious. Tibi rejects the "clash of civilizations" theory and argues for the revival of Islamic humanism to help bridge the gap.
