Islam and the Political Discourse of Modernity (International Politics of the Middle East Series, 4) - Hardcover
This book suggests a genealogical perspective for understanding the modern politics of the so-called "Islamic revival". It attempts to break the methodological dead-lock resulting from the compartmentalization of all the categories in question, in particular Islam, politics and modernity.

About the Author:
Armando Salvatore is Researcher and Lecturer in Political Sociology at the Humboldt University in Berlin, and Research Associate at CEDEJ in Cairo.
Review:
'This is far from an introduction to modern political Islam. This book demands prior knowledge of both the political and religious aspects of the Arab-Muslim world and most of all, familiarity with the latest sociological terms. This is an important book.' TFMS (Sweden) 'Salvatore's argument is ... ambitious. He does not simply describe debates on religion and politics in Islam, but tries to locate them sociologically and historically.' Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations, Vol. 12, No. 1, 2000 'A scholar equally at home in Western and Islamic intellectual history is uncommon; one who is sufficiently comfortable to discover correspondences and ties between the two intellectual traditions is especially rare. Dr. Salvatore's densely argued but wide-ranging dissertation will challenge and reward scholars of Islam everywhere.' MESA Newsletter, February 1995.
