Catholics and US Politics After the 2020 Elections: Biden Chases the ‘Swing Vote'
ISBN: 9783030822149 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Sufi Civilities: Religious Authority and Political Change in Afghanistan
ISBN: 9781503633384 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite its pervasive reputation as a place of religious extremes and war, Afghanistan has a complex and varied religious landscape where elements from a broad spectrum of religious belief vie for a place in society. It is also one of the birthplaces of a widely practiced variant of Islam: Sufism. Contemporary analysts suggest that Sufism is on the decline due to war and the ideological hardening that results from societies in conflict. However, in Sufi Civilities, Annika Schmeding argues that this is far from a truthful depiction. Members of Sufi communities have worked as resistance...
