Islam and political legitimacy Edited by Shahram Akbarzadeh and Abdullah Saeed Published by RoutledgeCurzon (2003) |
Book description
This book deals with the topical issue of political mobilisation and legitimacy
in a number of Muslim states, and explores sources of tension and turmoil in

relationship between political power and Islam through a comparative study
of carefully selected Muslim states. Special attention is paid to the mechanisms
of state control/utilisation of Islam to maintain stability and to bolster
