Summary:From North Africa to Indonesia, Muslim populations have struggled to cope with the new environmental realities.

Delving into the causes of this new environmentalism phenomenon, Emmanuel Karagiannis explores the motivations of different Islamist groups and assesses the degree of influence that Islamic texts, rulings and principles have on the green policies pursued.
