4.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent introduction to 20th Century Islamist thought,
By A Customer
This review is from: Modern Islamic Political Thought (Paperback)
Enayat's book is now a little out of date, but it remains as good an introduction to the main threads of modern Islamist thought as is available. Although written for an academic audience the book is readable and highly recommended to anyone that wishes to look beyond the rhetoric of recent months to the reality of Islamic concepts of the state and the struggle of Muslim thinkers to describe the nature of authority in a post-caliphal world.

5.0 out of 5 stars
From the Back Cover,
By A Customer
This review is from: Modern Islamic Political Thought (Paperback)
The political and religious fervor among Muslims, symbolized by the Iranian Revolution, gives us an often perplexing picture of the politics of the Muslim world. What are the political beliefs of Muslims? What is meant by an "Islamic state"? Hamid Enayat answers these questions by interpreting and illuminating the major Islamic political ideas from Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan and India.
