A History of Islamist Mobilizations (19th-21st century)

Publisher CNRS Éditions
A world historical study exploring instances of Islamism in all their variety over the last two centuries.

This social and political history starts in the 19th century and gives readers a world tour of Islamist mobilizations from Algeria to Indonesia, Nigeria to Iran, showing just how structurally embedded the process is. This deep dive into the world of fundamentalist Islam centers around five pivotal historical moments, from initial stirrings to contemporary revivals, the shock of colonialism to the era of revolutions. At the same time, it correlates major socioeconomic and political transformations in relations between the West and the Muslim world with native (and not merely cultural) responses to these upheavals.
