This book brings about a more a serious understanding of Islamic polit- - ics by critically tracing the pathways by which Islamic politics has been transformed in the Middle East and Asia. Through the exploration of dissent and power it argues that Islamic politics had not been enc- a- sed in ineffectual dissent even before the 'Arab Spring' took the Middle-East closer to historical trends of democratization elsewhere i- n t- he world.The findings from country-specific studies of Algeria, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Morocco, Pakistan, Tunisia and Turkey demonstrate that Islamic politics has developed a large and resilient capa- city for adaptation and reinvention not only in the Middle-East but in Asia as well. Moreover, the international spectrum of Islamic politicsstretches from marginalized dissent to established government with po- litical parties and movements competing to different degrees of success for power, frequently by electoral means.This study traces and expl- ains the collective progression of Islamic politics between points of dissent and positions of power, a subject that has not been directly or systematically covered by the extensive literature on Isl- am and politics"--. - Machine generated contents note: -- 1.
