Publication details: London : Hurst , 2017 Description: IX, 365 p. ; 22 cmISBN: 9781849047012Subject(s): Liberalismo | IslamAbstract: This volume looks however to the way in which Muslim politics and society are defined beyond and indeed after it. Reappraising the ‘first wave’ of Islamic liberalism during the nineteenth century, the book describes the long and intertwined histories of these categories across a large geographical expanse. By drawing upon the contributions of scholars from a variety of disciplines — including philosophy, theology, sociology, politics and history — it explores how liberalism has been criticised and refashioned by Muslim thinkers and movements, to assume a reality beyond the abstractions that define its compatibility with Islam. -- SolapaItem type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
