Written by scholars from a range of disciplines concerned with the Middle East and Islam (history, religious studies, anthropology, sociology, political science) and covering the Muslim world extensively (from Malaysia, Turkey, Sudan, Egypt, Israel/Palestine to Muslim communities in Europe and the United States), this important contribution to the debate on globalization sets a standard in dealing with this pervasive force in the field of Islamic and Middle Eastern studies.
Fresh and interesting.... The case studies are rich in data, and the theoretical and historical studies are nuanced and insightful.... Because of the widespread belief in a of civilizations, both in popular forms and in parts of the academy, the subtle yet powerful critique that this book offers is timely, important, and valuable."" - Carl Ernst
