Power, Sect and State in Syria: The Politics of Marriage and Identity Amongst the Druze
ISBN: 9781784532208 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Syrian state s rhetoric of Arab nationalism left little room for the official recognition of minority identities in pre-war Syria. Yet in practice, the state continually engaged with the Druze and other minorities to reinforce its legitimacy, often through cultural policy. Uncovering this neglected aspect of pre-war Syrian politics, Kastrinou explores the cultural politics of marriage in Syria, primarily among the Druze, to reveal how practical rituals of marriage inform sectarian and national identity formation. Challenging the assumed inherence of sectarianism and Druze... The Syrian state s rhetoric of Arab nationalism left little room for the official recognition of minority identities in pre-war Syria.

Pakistan - The Instrumentalization of Islam : Political Manipulation of Islamic Theology in Pakistani History
ISBN: 9783643907011 / Angielski / Miękka / 568 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book studies Islam's place in Pakistani history and how it has been continually exploited by successive regimes. Using Islam as a final political argument weakened it as a basis of national integration. Playing the Islamic card led to ever increasing Islamist demands.

While Christian approaches to the problem of evil have been much discussed, the issue of theodicy in Islam is relatively neglected.

Using a wealth of primary sources and covering the entire Ottoman period, Ottoman Women in Public Space challenges the traditional view that sees Ottoman women as a largely silent element of society, restricted to the home and not seen beyond the walls of the house or the public bath.

Islamic Charities and Islamic Humanism in Troubled Times
ISBN: 9780719099724 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the fruit of twenty years' reflection on Islamic charities, both in practical terms and as a key to understand the crisis in contemporary Islam.

On the other hand, it suffers from a crisis of authority that cannot be blamed entirely on the history of colonialism and stigmatization to which Muslims have undoubtedly been subjected most recently, as a result of the "war on terror." The book consists of seventeen...

The Gulen, or Hizmet, movement in Turkey is the country s most powerful and affluent religious organisation. Its central tenet, advanced by its founder, the charismatic Sunni preacher Fethullah Gulen (b. 1941), is that Muslims should engage positively with modernity. A prime means of advancing this philosophy has been education: at hundreds of Gulen-run schools and universities, not only in Turkey but also worldwide, instructors aim to cultivate the next generation of Muslim bankers, biologists, software engineers and entrepreneurs. But how does the Gulen movement resolve the sometimes...
