Klappentext zu „Shari'a Politics: Islamic Law and Society in the Modern World “

One of the most important developments in Muslim politics in recent yearshas been the spread of movements calling for the implementation of sharia orIslamic law. Shari a Politics maps the ideals and organization of thesemovements and examines their implications for the future of democracy, citizenrights, and gender relations in the Muslim world. These studies of eightMuslim-majority societies, and state-of-the-field reflections by leading experts, provide the first comparative investigation of movements for and againstimplementation of sharia. These essays reveal that the Muslim public's interestin sharia does not spring from an unchanging devotion to received religioustradition, but from an effort to respond to the central political and ethicalquestions of the day.

Rezension zu „Shari'a Politics: Islamic Law and Society in the Modern World “

"Valuable for researchers and others who need access to surveys of Islamic politics in a variety of countries... [C]an easily be adopted by teachers who would like materials that are suitable for upper-level undergraduate courses or graduate courses... [A]n extremely fine book." -- Clark Lombardi, author of State Law as Islamic Law in Modern Egypt "The contributors successfully expose both opponents and proponents of shari'a in a balanced way. This interdisciplinary book challenges various misperceptions about Islamic law by revealing the dynamic relationships among the state, society, and shari'a in significant cases. It is a must reading for those who are interested in Islam, law, and politics. ... Highly recommended." Choice, March 2012
