Description
Résumé:The author emphasizes that every Islamic movement needs to be examined within the context of its own country and its terms. In order not to make "Islam the new -ism in a new Cold War" the author advocates to look also at other cases than that of Algeria. Therefore he analyzes the Islamic movements in Jordan and Yemen, both countries undergoing democratization prosesses. The author shows that nonviolent Islamic political parties are included in the democratizing political systems of these two countries. (DÜI-Mjr)
