| Summary: | Klappentext: This book retraces the human and intellectual development that has led renowned scholar François Burgat to one very firm conviction: that the roots of the tensions that afflict the Western world's relationship with the Muslim world are at their root political, far more than they are ideological. 0It aims to limit itself to a precise scholarly arena: recounting, as meticulously as possible, the most striking interactions between a personal life-history and professional and research trajectories. This path has consistently centered on how the rise of political Islam has been expressed: first in the Arab world, then in its interactions with French and Western societies, and finally in its interactions with other European and Western societies. An essential continuation of his work on Islamism, Burgat's unique field research and 'political trespassing' marks an overdue challenge to the academic mainstream. |
