Eickelman. 520 $a The revival of madrasas in the 1980s coincided with the rise of political Islam and soon became associated with the "clash of civilizations" between Islam and the West. This volume examines the rapid expansion of madrasas across Asia and the Middle East and analyses their role in society within their local, national and global context. Based on anthropological investigations in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, China, Iran, and Pakistan, the chapters take a new approach to the issue, examining the recent phenomenon of women in madrasas; Hui Muslims in China; relations between the Iran's Shia seminary after the 1979-Islamic revolution and Shia in Pakistan and Afghanistan; and South Asian madrasas. Emphasis is placed on the increased presence of women in these institutions, and the reciprocal interactions between secular and religious schools in those countries. Taking into account social, political and demographic changes within the region, the authors show how madrasas have been successful in responding to the educational demand of the people and how they have been modernized their style to cope with a changing environment. 650 0 $a Madrasahs. 650 0 $a Islamic education. 650 0 $a Islamic religious education. 700 1 $a Sakurai, Keiko. 700 0 $a Adelkhah, Fariba. 830 0 $a New horizons in Islamic studies 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825091418.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A12119AE6A8C11E689525693DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
