Über Islam in the Modern World (RLE Politics of Islam)

In recent years, events in the Islamic world have captured the attention of the West to an unprecedented degree.

Different areas of Islamic life are singled out for special attention; these include the problem of relations between Islam and the West, the role of the Sufi orders and the revival of religious fundamentalism, Islam and the feminine, Islamic economics and Islamic architecture. Geographically, the essays cover a wide area, ranging over Sudan, Turkey, Iran, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
