Understanding Political Islam
Manchester University Press (Verlag)
978-1-5261-4343-3 (ISBN)
Understanding Political Islam retraces the human and intellectual development that led François Burgat to a very firm conviction: that the roots of the tensions that afflict the Western world’s relationship with the Muslim world are political rather than ideological. In his compelling account of the interactions between personal life-history and professional research trajectories, Burgat examines how the rise of political Islam has been expressed: first in the Arab world, then in its interactions with European and Western societies. An essential continuation of his work on Islamism, Burgat’s unique field research and ‘political trespassing’ marks an overdue challenge to the academic mainstream. -- .
François Burgat is Research Director Emeritus at the CNRS, Institut de recherches et d’études sur le monde arabe et musulman (IREMAM), Aix-en-Provence -- .
