Opis

This book provides a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of the ‘participationist’ strand of Islamism in Britain. It analyses how the individuals and groups associated with the Muslim Brotherhood and Jamaat-i-Islami in Britain comprise a collective force - a movement - and how this movement is antagonistic to Britain’s liberal democratic culture.
