While ISIS and other jihadist groups garner the most media attention, the vast majority of Islamists are of the mainstream variety, seeking gradual change and participating in parliamentary politics when they're allowed to. It is these groups that are the focus of this book. They not only represent the future of what we call "political Islam," but they also - in their own struggles adapting to the changes of recent years - provide a fascinating window into a rapidly changing Middle East. The breadth of the book is expansive, covering the experience of Islamist groups in twelve countries: Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Jordan, and Pakistan, as well as Malaysia and Indonesia. In each of these cases, contributors consider how Muslim Brotherhood and Brotherhood-inspired Islamist movements have grappled with fundamental questions, including gradual versus revolutionary approaches to change, the use of tactical or situational violence, attitudes toward the nation-state, and how ideology and political variables interact. The case studies include authoritarian and democratic states and are not solely focused on the Arab world, allowing readers to consider a greater diversity of Islamist experiences. 610 20 $a IkhwaÌn al-MuslimuÌn. 650 0 $a Islam and politics $z Middle East. 651 0 $a Middle East $x Politics and government $y 21st century. 651 0 $a Islamic countries $x Politics and government $y 21st century. 700 1 $a Hamid, Shadi, $d 1983- $e editor. 700 1 $a McCants, William F. $q (William Faizi), $d 1975- $e editor. 880 0 $6 505-00 $a Egypt / by Steven Brooke -- Tunisia / by Monia Marks -- Morocco / by Avi Spiegel -- Syria / by Rapha�el Lef�evre -- Yemen / by Stacey Philbrick Yadav -- Libya / by Omar Ashour -- Saudi Arabia / by Toby Matthiesen -- Kuwait / by Courtney Freer -- Jordan / by David Patel -- Pakistan / by Matthew Nelson -- Southeast Asia / by Joseph Chinyong Liow -- Islamism and U.S. foreign policy / by Peter Mandaville -- Amr Darrag, Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood leader, in conversation with Steven Brooke -- Sayida Ounissi, Ennahda member of the Tunisian Parliament, in conversation with Monica Marks -- Ammar Fayed, Muslim Brotherhood youth activist on the state of the Brotherhood today -- "How much do organizational structures matter" / Jacob Olidort in conversation with Rapha�el Lef�evre -- "The relationship between religious literacy and religious motivation" / by Andrew Lebovich -- "Does islamism have an intellectual deficit" / by Ovamir Anjum. 880 20 $6 610-00 $a Ikhw�an al-Muslim�un. 941 $a 4 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214014829.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20190329010120.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006110932.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180905045539.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BA6D249EA80111E7B9D4614397128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
