Al-Azmeh traces how political Islam breaks with core elements of the Muslim tradition and, at the same time, roots many of its concepts in European reactionary and romantic thought. Surveying both its social origins end its intellectual genealogy, he rethinks the relationship between Islam end the West, uncovering a rich actual history of interaction. This second edition, enriched by three new essays, wlll challenge the cliches of crusaders and fanatics on both sides and help to dispel the ignorance which breeds such fear and distrust.
