Religious Statecraft: The Politics of Islam in Iran
ISBN: 9780231183666 / Angielski / Twarda / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the 1979 revolution, scholars and policy makers alike have tended to see Iranian political actors as religiously driven--dedicated to overturning the international order in line with a theologically prescribed outlook. In Religious Statecraft, Mohammad Ayatollahi Tabaar argues that such views have the link between religious ideology and political order backwards. This provocative book examines the politics of Islam rather than political Islam--demonstrating that religious narratives can change rapidly, frequently, and dramatically in accordance with elites' threat perceptions....

ISBN: 9781438466699 / Angielski / Twarda / 378 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Around the globe, concerns about interfaith relations have led to efforts to find earlier models in Muslim Iberia (al-Andalus).

Civantos's analysis reveals that, alongside established narratives that use al-Andalus to create exclusionary,...

Walayah in the Faaotimid Ismaa'ailai Tradition
ISBN: 9781438466279 / Angielski / Twarda / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this original study, Elizabeth R. Alexandrin examines the complex relationships that can be inscribed between medieval Ismā'īlī thought as an intellectual tradition with a devotional practice of reliance on the imām, and as a politico-esoteric system that redefined governance during the Fāṭimid caliphate in the eleventh century. Alexandrin's work is a departure from recent Western scholarship that focuses on similarities among early Islamic traditions. She argues instead that, under the guidance of the Fāṭimid Ismā'īlī chief...
