Jocelyne Cesari
0/5 ( ratings)
This books seeks to bridge a gap in the existing literature that emphasizes Islamic fundamentalist movements but fails to capture a comprehensive view of all globalized forms of Islam. It will provide a typology and present little known manifestations of Islam, including Sufi orders, sects, and proselytizing movements. Cesari identifies two opposing strands of Islam, one defensive and conservative, the other constructive and cosmopolitan, and investigates their emergence, development, and effect upon international relations.
