US Foreign Policy in the Middle East The Roots of Anti-Americanism Kylie Baxter, Australian Agency for Education and Training, Melbourne, Australia and Shahram Akbarzadeh, University of Melbourne, Australia
Over the last sixty years, Washington has been a major player in the politics of the Middle East. From Iran in the 1950s, to the Gulf War of 1991, to the devastation of contemporary Iraq, US policy has had a profound impact on the domestic affairs of the region. Anti-Americanism is a pervasive feature of modern Middle East public opinion. But far from being intrinsic to ‘Muslim political culture’, scepticism of the US agenda is directly linked to the regional policies pursued by Washington.
• stereotypes of the region
By exploring critical points of regional crisis, Kylie Baxter and Shahram Akbarzadeh elaborate on the links between US policy and popular distrust of the United States. The book also examines the interconnected nature of events in this geo-strategically vital region. Accessible and easy to follow, it is designed to provide a clear and concise overview of complex historical and political material. Key features include:
• the making of the modern state system
• maps illustrating key events and areas of discontent
• contemporary Islamist thought
• text boxes on topics of interest related to the Arab/ Israeli Wars, Iranian politics, foreign interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq, the wars of the Persian Gulf, September 11 and the rise of Islamist movements
Key chapters focus on:
• the Arab-Israeli conflicts • the struggle for economic and social development • democracy and political transformation in the region. Designed to both introduce and develop a deeper understanding of this rapidly changing region, The Middle East Today is an essential text for all students of Middle East Studies, Middle East politics and geography.

The Routledge Atlas of the Arab-Israeli Conflict Martin Gilbert Series: Routledge Historical Atlases The Routledge Atlas of the Arab-Israeli Conflict traces not only the tangled and bitter history of the Arab-Jewish struggle from the early twentieth century to the present, including the death of Yasser Arafat and recent proposals for territorial settlement, it also illustrates the move towards finding peace and the efforts to bring the horrors of the fighting to an end through negotiation and proposals for agreed boundaries. In 204 maps, the complete history of the conflict is revealed including:
• the prelude and background to the conflict – from the siting of the Palestinian Jews before the Arab conquest to the attitude of Britain to the Arabs between 1917 and the present • the Jewish national home – from the Zionist plan for Palestine in 1919 to the state of the Arab world from 1945 to the present day • the intensification of the conflict – from the Arab response to the UN partition plan of 1947 to the first steps towards the independence of Israel in 1948 • the state of Israel – from the Israeli War of Independence and the Six Day War to the War of Yom Kippur and the first and second Intifada, the suicide-bomb campaign, and the Israel-Hezbollah War of 2006 • the moves to find peace – from the first and second Camp David talks, to the death of Arafat, to the continuing search for peace, including Annapolis, 2007, and beyond.

The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict A People’s War Beverley Milton-Edwards, Queen’s University Belfast, UK
The conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is one of the most enduring and complex in the modern world. But, why did the conflict break out? Who is demanding what, and why is peace so difficult to achieve?
The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict tackles the subject and analyses the conflict from its historical roots in the late nineteenth century to the present attempts at conflict resolution in the twenty-first century. Framing the debate and analysis around issues such as Zionism, Palestinian nationalism, international peace efforts, the refugees, state-building, democracy and religious opposition and highlighted by first hand quotes and sources of the conflict from its major participants, Beverley Milton-Edwards explores the deep impact of the conflict on regional politics in the Middle East and why the enmity between Palestinians and Israelis has become a number one global issue drawing in the world’s most important global actors. An essential insight into the complexities of one of the world’s most enduring conflicts between Israelis and Palestinians, this textbook is designed to make a complex subject accessible to all. Key features include a chronology of events and annotated further reading at the end of each chapter. The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is an ideal and authoritative introduction into aspects of politics in Israel, among the Palestinians – a vitally important issue for those studying the politics of the Middle East. Selected Contents: Introduction 1. Roots of Conflict 2. Between the Wars 3. Palestine after the Holocaust 4. Israel Reborn 5. The Dispossessed 6. The Occupation Generation 7. The War of the Stones and Guns 8. A Global Concern 9. Moving from Zero

Israel’s Wars A History since 1947 Ahron Bregman, King’s College, University of London, UK
Since its foundation the state of Israel has endured almost constant violence. Israel’s Wars is a fascinating and essential insight into the turbulent history of this troubled country. From the 1947-8 Jewish-Palestinian struggle for mastery of the land of Palestine to the on-going Al-Aqsa intifada and the second Lebanon war, this book exposes hitherto unknown facts, including details of secret Soviet involvement in inciting the 1967 Six Day War, Israeli bombing of the American warship the USS Liberty, and Israeli assassinations of leading Palestinians during the Al-Aqsa intifada.
2nd Edition
The Israel/Palestine Question A Reader Edited by Ilan Pappé, University of Haifa, Israel
In this new edition of The Israel/ Palestine Question, Ilan Pappé showcases some of the most recent areas of scholarly interest in the history of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. Including only works which challenge previous conceptions and paradigms, Ilan Pappé emphasizes a number of recent developments in the conventional historiography.
All the chapters in this new edition are written by Israeli or Palestinian scholars, illustrating how much the desire to revisit the history of the conflict comes from historians belonging to the conflicting parties. The book also presents work influenced by wider historiographical developments, for instance the current interdisciplinary drive, as well as a sceptical view of elite historical narratives and the rise of non-elite history. This new edition includes: • revisionist views on the formation of Palestine • revised sections on the history of the 1948 war and the experiences of Palestinians in Israel • a new section on women’s history. With a fully updated introduction, Ilan Pappé’s timely anthology is a stimulating guide to the complex history and politics of the Middle East. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction: New Historiographical Orientation in the Research on the Palestine Question Part 1: The History of Palestine Rediscovered 2. Rediscovering Ottoman Palestine: Writing Palestinians into History 3. The Rise of the Sanjak of Jerusalem in the Late Nineteenth Century Part 2: The Origins of Zionism in Palestine Reconsidered 4.

’Global Political Islam, is a well-informed account of the origins of mainstream Islamism, the strategies of Islamisation, the emergence of the radical fringe, the competition for authority among Muslim elites and the impact of globalisation on Muslim politics. This is a study which sets out to transcend the ’narrow moment’ of al-Qaeda.’ - The Economist
’Global Political Islam is the best panoramic view of Muslim politics today. With lucidity and insight, Peter Mandaville effortlessly explains the complexity of Islamism without becoming bogged down in jargon or narrowly defending one line of interpretation. He displays an equally impressive command of specific movements such as the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaida and critical issues such as globalisation, the crisis over the state, and competition over religious authority. It is difficult to imagine a more reliable or informed treatment of a shifting and ever widening Islamic landscape.’ - James Piscatori, Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, UK ’Peter Mandaville has produced a wonderful analysis of what political Islam represents and who speaks for it. Nuanced, erudite and encyclopedic, Global Political Islam provides a fresh perspective on how Islamic ideas, parties and actors shape Muslim society and politics from Southeast Asia to the British Midlands. This book will impress specialists and general readers alike.’ - Vali Nasr, Tufts University, USA and author of The Shia Revival: How Conflicts within Islam will Shape the Future.

Introducing Islam
The Qur’an
William Shepard, Associate Professor of Religious Studies, Retired, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand
An Introduction
Series: World Religions ’This is a model textbook, which manages to be both comprehensive and concise at the same time. Shepard conveys not merely the fundamental formal teachings of Islam, but also the kaleidoscope of its lived practice, addressing the diverse responses that Muslims across the world have had to the Prophet’s initial call some fourteen hundred years ago.’ – Paul M. Cobb, University of Pennsylvania
Abdullah Saeed, University of Melbourne, Australia
Since the events of 9/11 and 7/7, Islam has become one of the most controversial and misunderstood religions in the world. Introducing Islam encourages students to put aside their preconceptions and explore this fascinating religion. William Shepard traces the history of Islam, from its early environment and origins in the life and career of Mohammed, through its classical expressions to its interactions with the West in the modern world. Shepard devotes a chapter each to important topics such as The Qur’an, Islamic law, Islamic theology, and the Sufi movement. In addition to this, four chapters are devoted to studies of Islam in individual countries: Turkey, Iran, Egypt and Indonesia, and Shepard explores Islamic civilization through discussion of Islamic art and culture, and community rituals. Introducing Islam is the ideal introduction for students wishing to gain a sympathetic understanding of Islam. Illustrated throughout, the book also includes text boxes, summary charts, a glossary of key Arabic terms, and a list of further reading to aid students’ understanding and revision.

Morocco Challenges to Tradition and Modernity James N. Sater, American University of Sharjah, UAE
The Contemporary Middle East Series Edited by: Anoushiravan Ehteshami, University of Durham, UK The Contemporary Middle East Series provides the first systematic attempt at studying the key actors of the dynamic, complex and strategically important MENA region, employing an innovative common format which in each case study provides an easily-digestible analysis of the origins of the state, its contemporary politics, economics and international relations.
For many contemporary observers and analysts, Morocco remains a mystery. So close to Europe, Morocco simultaneously represents a similarly open political culture and its complete antithesis: Human rights associations openly challenge authoritarian rule, while an emphasis on Moroccan singularity and authenticity prevents the establishment of a real democracy. Widespread poverty and illiteracy co-exist with a flourishing entrepreneurial class and the display of conspicuous wealth in its cities; electoral institutions and political parties pay allegiance to a traditional monarch; disgruntled youth and inhabitants of shantytowns are receptive to the rhetoric of Islamic inspired violence and terror. This book provides an introductory overview of contemporary politics and international relations in Morocco, and gives an up to date assessment of the economy and recent history. Drawing on key academic texts, the author provides a detailed analysis of Morocco, focusing on issues such as: • Morocco’s role within the region
Forthcoming
• trade policies with Europe
Lebanon
• Morocco’s Western Sahara policy
The Politics of a Penetrated Society
• ways of dealing with Political Islam
Tom Najem, University of Windsor, Canada
• the extent to which European influence has affected Moroccan society
Lebanon gives a concise and lucid account of contemporary Lebanese society. It provides both a developed understanding of the pre-civil war system and an analysis of how circumstances resulting from the civil war combined with essential pre-war elements to define the contemporary political processes in Lebanon. Selected Contents: 1. Lebanon Before 1975 2. The Civil War: 1975-1990 3. The Post-War Political System 4. Post-War Reconstruction and the Economy 5.

Jordan A Hashemite Legacy Beverley Milton-Edwards, Queen’s University Belfast, UK and Peter Hinchcliffe, University of Edinburgh, UK
Created as a mechanism for maintaining British influence through a local patron, Jordan’s future never looked certain. Nevertheless, under the leadership of the Hashemite monarchy led by Abdullah and then his grandson Hussein, the Kingdom of Jordan became a permanent feature on the map of the modern Middle East.
Under the rule of King Abdullah II, Jordan has remained an influential regional player in the Middle East Peace Process, its strategic position on the borders of Palestine, Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Iraq ensuring that it cannot be overlooked in the regional and international politics. Updated and expanded to include recent developments in Jordan and the Middle East, the new edition includes coverage and discussion of: • the reign of King Abdullah II • the involvement of the US in the Iraq war and the effect on this on Jordan’s alignment with the West • the country’s recent economic growth, with an emphasis on economic liberalisation, privatisation, promotion of tourism and encouragement of foreign investment • the position of Jordan as a point of continuity in an increasingly unstable Middle East. This volume, intended for both academic and general readers, offers an overview of the history, politics and economics of this fascinating country and its role in a region disfigured by the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Iran and the International System
Islam in the Eyes of the West
Edited by Anoush Ehteshami and Reza Molavi, both at University of Durham, UK
Tareq Ismael, University of Calgory, Canada and Andrew Rippin, University of Victoria, Canada
Much attention in the West has focused on Iran as a problem. This book goes further however by discussing how international relations are viewed from inside Iran itself, outlining the factors which underpin Iranian thinking on international relations and considering what role Iran, as a large and significant country in the Middle East, ought to play in a fairly constructed international system.
From the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in New York to the Madrid and London bombings of 2004 and 2005, the presence of Muslim communities in the West has generated security issues and major political concern. The government, the media, and the general public have raised questions regarding potential links between Western Muslims, radical Islam and terrorism. This speculation has given rise to popular myths concerning the Islamic world and led to a host of illiberal measures such as illegal warranting, denial of Habeas Corpus, black prisons and extreme torture throughout the democratic world. This book challenges the authenticity of these myths and examines the ways in which they have been used to provide an ideological cover for the ’war on terror’ and the subsequent Iraq war. It argues that they are not only unfounded and hollow, but have also served a dangerous purpose, namely war-mongering and the empowering of the national-security state. It further considers the origin and transmission of these myths, focusing on media, government policy and popular discourse.

’This is a welcome addition to the field of the history of Jerusalem, offering a broad overview of several themes, historical periods and approaches’ - Roberto Mazza, Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, 2009
Jerusalem, the holy city of three faiths, has been the focus of competing historical, religious, and political narratives from Biblical chronicles to today’s headlines. With an aura that transcends the boundaries of time and place, the city itself embodies different levels of reality – indeed, different realities altogether – for both observers and inhabitants. There is the real Jerusalem, a place of ancient streets and monuments, temples and coffee-houses, religious discourse and political argument. But there is also the imaginary and utopian city that exists in the minds of believers, political strategists, and artists. The study of this multifaceted city poses complex questions that range over several fields of inquiry. The multidisciplinary studies in Jerusalem offer insights into this complexity. Chapters by leading scholars examine the significant issues that relate to the perception, representation, and status of the city at the historical, religious, social, artistic, and political levels. Together they provide an essential resource for anyone interested in the paradoxes that Jerusalem offers. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction Tamar Mayer and Suleiman Mourad 2. One City, One Faith, One God: Notes on Jerusalem’s Religious Complexity Frank E. Peters 3. Jerusalem in Jewish History, Tradition, and Memory Lee Levine 4.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Iran and Nuclear Weapons
Politics of Modern Iran
Protracted Conflict and Proliferation
Edited by Ali M. Ansari, University of St Andrews, UK
Saira Khan, McGill University, Canada
Series: Critical Issues in Modern Politics
Series: Routledge Global Security Studies
A quarter of a century on from the revolution of 1979 there is an ongoing political struggle within Iran between traditionalists and modernists, with the ever-younger average age of the population playing a dynamic role. And on the international stage, the big issues remain Iran’s hostility towards Israel and the development of nuclear power in the face of US and international opposition. This is all in addition to the oil question and the strategic interest of Russia, an issue which harks back to the nineteenth century but remains unresolved, as well as Iran’s concern about the proper stewardship of the holy places of Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem.
Investigates what is driving Iran’s nuclear weapons programme in a less-hostile regional environment, using a theory of protracted conflicts to explicate proliferation.
This four-volume collection brings together for the first time the very best and most influential scholarship on the politics of modern Iran. It is an invaluable source of reference for both scholars and students alike, and will allow those developing an interest in Iran quickly and easily to access the highest quality scholarship in the field. Any understanding of modern Iran must be founded on a firm grasp of the historical context and some of the conceptual issues which underwrite contemporary Iranian politics. Volume I brings together the key work on Iran’s historical inheritance, including articles on religion and culture. Volume II gathers the vital scholarship on the political development of Iran while the third volume assembles materials focused on economic development and the contemporary political economy. The final volume in the collection is organized around Iran’s foreign relations, and includes a special section on the Iran–Iraq War. Selected Contents: Volume I: History & Theory Volume II: Politics & History Volume III: Political Economy Volume IV: International Relations May 2010: 234x156: 1600pp Hb: 978-0-415-40911-7: $1295.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415409117

This new four-volume collection of cutting-edge and canonical scholarship counters the oft-cited opinion that studies of Middle Eastern politics are devoid of social scientific theory and method by providing an overview of the state of the scholarship in the field, innovations therein, and the debates that have advanced knowledge in the field. The collection covers the Arab world, from Morocco to the borders of Iran, with the focus primarily on the twentieth century, and especially the post-Second World War era. By choosing a wide array of authors, many of whom are from the region or from the non-Anglophone world, the full breadth of worldwide scholarship on the modern Arab world is on display. The collection defines politics broadly—in line with the most innovative current works in the field of political studies—to include not only politics at the state level, but also the public, social, and popular domains that define and shape (and are in turn defined and shaped by) politics. 2008: 238x156: 2128pp Hb: 978-0-415-45159-8: $1043.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415451598

UCLA Center for Middle East Development (CMED) Series Edited by: Steven Spiegel, University of California, Los Angeles, USA and Elizabeth Matthews, California State University, San Marcos, USA The UCLA Center for Middle East Development (CMED) series on Middle East security and cooperation is designed to present a variety of perspectives on a specific topic, such as democracy in the Middle East, dynamics of IsraeliPalestinian relations, Gulf security, and the gender factor in the Middle East. The uniqueness of the series is that the authors write from the viewpoint of a variety of countries so that no matter what the issue, articles appear from many different states, both within and beyond the region. No existing series provides a comparable, multinational collection of authors. Most volumes contain a distinct and eclectic variety; some concentrate on a particular topic intensely with less multinational diversity. The series in total presents a combination of writers from countries who, for political reasons, do not always publish in the same volume or collection. The series also features a number of sub-themes under a single heading, covering security, social, political, and economic factors affecting the Middle East. Forthcoming

The Struggle over Democracy in the Middle East Regional Politics and External Policies Edited by Nathan J. Brown, George Washington University, USA and Emad Shahin, Harvard University, USA
Many residents of the Middle East - and more recently, Western powers - have placed great hope in democratization in the region. Yet authoritarianism remains the norm and movement towards democracy is both slow and uneven.
The Struggle over Democracy in the Middle East examines democracy and democratization in the light of regional realities rather than the wishful thinking of outsiders. Specialists from the region analyze democratic prospects in the region, while accomplished scholars from the United States and the United Kingdom analyze Western policy, providing a wide-ranging survey of the efforts of individual countries and the effect of external influences. Addressing themes including sectarianism, culture, religion, security and the promotion of democracy, the book examines the experiences of activists, political parties, religious groups and governments and highlights the difficulties involved in bringing democracy to the Middle East. Providing a multifaceted approach to the issue of democratization, this book will be a valuable reference for courses on Middle Eastern politics, political science and democracy. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction Nathan J. Brown and Emad El-Din Shahin Part 1: The View From Outside: External Efforts at Democracy Promotion 2. New Wine in Old Bottles? American Efforts to Promote Democracy in the Arab World Nathan J. Brown and Amy Hawthorne 3. Democracy and Security in the Middle East Richard Youngs 4.

Democracy, Reform, and Authoritarianism in the Arab World Edited by Gerd Nonneman Series: Critical Concepts in the Modern Politics of the Middle East
Routledge Studies in Political Islam This series provides a forum for the latest research on all aspects of political Islam. It includes a range of approaches and studies on individuals, movements, theory and practice
The potential for reform in the pattern of persistent authoritarianism in the Arab world has been the subject of interest for policymakers, the informed general public, and scholars alike, particularly since the end of the Cold War and again after the events of 11 September 2001. It is also one that has generated much debate within the Arab world itself, both in this period and, less prominently, but at times very acutely, throughout much of the twentieth century.
Forthcoming
Such debates and investigations have been carried out at the popular, political, intelligentsia, and scholarly levels, producing a varied array of commentary, analysis, and policy prescription. The subject ties in to questions of the relationship between Islam and politics, and, in a comparative context of democratization studies, the role of political culture, the nature of civil society and the middle class, the role of external powers, and the links—if any—between economic development and economic liberalization on the one hand, and political liberalization and democratization on the other.
This book examines the link between Islamic thought/ jurisprudence on the one hand and political action on the other. It shows how reformism is deeply rooted in Islamic tradition and how Sunni scholars have become activists for change in Saudi Arabia.
In exploring the chances of, and conditions for, liberalization and democratization, much of the relevant scholarly literature has also had to focus on the other side of the coin: what has sustained and may continue to sustain authoritarian rule? Findings and arguments about these questions are of direct relevance for Arabs themselves, policymakers with an interest in the region, and scholars both of the Arab world and of wider democratization studies: the wider field and the area-specific expertise have much to contribute to each other in this regard.

Yet the significant array of scholarly literature relating to these questions remains widely dispersed in a bewildering range of different outlets, important parts of which are unexplored by, or inaccessible to, large sections of the potentially interested audience. This new four-volume collection from Routledge meets the need for an authoritative reference work to make sense of the subject’s vast literature and the continuing explosion in research output.

’Jarret Brachman’s brilliant analysis of the ideology that inspires and sustains Al Qaeda and other violent jihadi movements will greatly enhance understanding of the threat they pose to peace and security . It is an invaluable aid for those engaged in combating the recruitment of future generations of jihadi suicide terrorists.’ – Paul Wilkinson , Emeritus Professor of International Relations, University of St Andrews ’Global Jihadism is an important contribution to the literature on al Qaeda and Salafist jihadism specifically and terrorism in general. Brachman masterfully dissects the ideology and strategy as well as the information operations and actual plots and attacks that have sustained this movement since 9/11. The book provides a timely and incisive analysis of the most pressing security challenge of our time.’ – Professor Bruce Hoffman, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University ‘Global Jihadism is an erudite, well-organized and interesting tour though the world of transnational jihadist terrorism that will be of interest to specialists, students and interested readers alike. Jarret Brachman has written an authoritative account of this complex subject.’ – Peter Bergen, author of Holy War, Inc. and The Osama bin Laden I Know. Global Jihadism exposes the core doctrine and strategy of today’s global Jihadist movement. The first half of the book explores the ideas upon which groups such as Al Qaeda are built, including the concepts of Jihad, al-Wala wal-Bara, Takfir and Tawhid. Jarret Brachman exposes a genre of Jihadist strategic scholarship that has been virtually ignored in the West and helps to situate it within the broader Salafist religious movement. The second half explores the thinking and activities of Al Qaeda’s propaganda machine, explaining its intricacies and idiosyncrasies. It includes case studies on the rise and fall of global Jihadist terrorism in Saudi Arabia post-9/11, and highlights the explosive results of bringing theory to bear on practice in the United Kingdom over the past twenty years. The book concludes by providing innovative strategies for combating the global Jihadist ideology. Selected Contents: Part 1: Theory 1. Introduction 2. Doctrine and Schools 3. Ideologues 4. Strategists Part 2: Practice 5. Propogandists 6. Al-Qa`ida in Saudi Arabia 7. Global Jihadism in the UK 8.

Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics The British Experience Tahir Abbas, Goldsmiths, University of London; Birkbeck College and University of Exeter, UK ‘Much of the commentary on Islam today is shrill and one-dimensional which further widens the gap between Muslims and non-Muslims. Because Tahir Abbas’ Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics is reasoned, scholarly and aims to provide historical context it is a powerful corrective. Being both British and Muslim allows him to present us with a truly insider’s account.’ - Akbar Ahmed, American University, USA ‘At long last we have a book which not only sets out the theological and historical underpinnings of Islam, but takes that background into the context of debates in today’s world. This is an essential work for all those wanting to understand what drives Islamic political radicalism and why this matters to us in the West. Tahir Abbas’ analysis is aided by an elegant and authentic voice, in contrast to plethora of similar works in this field. A ‘must read’ for the uninitiated as well as the experts.’ - Baroness Falkner of Margravine ‘A remarkable book, well researched, comprehensive in its coverage and highly relevant to contemporary British political concerns.’ - John Rex, Warwick University, UK The emergence of an Islamic political radicalism in Britain has been one of the most dramatic developments in post-war society. Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics explores the context behind this phenomenon, focusing on post-war immigration and integration, the complex relations that exist between Britain and Islam and the true extent of social and economic inequalities that affect Muslims.

Conflict, Diplomacy and Society in Israeli-Lebanese Relations
Bassam Tibi, University of Goettingen, Germany
’This book makes a profound contribution. Bassam Tibi’s analysis is both wideranging and incisive, covering the rise of contemporary political Islamism and its relationship with Islam, as well as explaining how its key concepts are to be understood in the appropriate historical, cultural and theological context. Based on over three decades of research, Tibi provides a critical, often fearless, assessment of political Islam which defies conventional wisdom and ignores political correctness without losing any of its intellectual rigour. Yet, Tibi not only evaluates and critiques, he puts forward an inspiringly positive vision of how Islam and democracy in Europe can prosper and enrich each other. In doing so, he addresses perhaps the most important political challenge in Europe today, making this book indispensable reading for anyone with an interest in how to overcome the threat from cultural division and religious conflict.’ - Peter R. Neumann, King’s College London, UK ’Tibi has given us a courageous book, rich in new concepts and fascinating detail derived from his widespread research and contact with significant policy makers’ - Daphne Burdman, US Army, Jewish Political Studies Review, FAll 2008 Is political Islam compatible with democracy? The rise of political Islam, as a force in world politics, has prompted questions and theories concerning its nature and compatibility with democratic values. Not least have been discussions and conflicts within Islamic communities, particularly in Europe where choices of identity and allegiance are growing acute. Bassam Tibi provides a broad ranging assessment of political Islam in the world, in all its various manifestations. In particular he focuses on Europe which is also home to a significant Islamic minority. Whilst rejecting the Clash of Civilizations theory the author clearly demonstrates the growing conflict and incompatibility between Islamist movements and European democracy. A practicing Muslim himself, Bassam Tibi, makes clear the vital importance of developing a Euro Islam that will peacefully accommodate religious beliefs within an inclusive democratic European culture. Selected Contents: Introduction Part 1: The Conflict within Islamic Civilization between Jihad and Democracy and its Pertinence to World Politics and to the Islam-Diaspora in Europe 1. From Classical Jihad to Global Jihadism in an Invention of Tradition for Mapping the World into Dar Al-Islam 2. Polity and Rule Part 2: Political Islam in World Politics 3. The World-Political Sunni-Fallacy 4. The Shi’i Option Part 3: Europe as a Battlefield for the Competing Options: Islamization/Europeanization 5. Political Islam and Europe in the 21st Century 6. The European Diaspora of Muslim Migrants and the Idea of Europe
With the War on Terror and the perceived clash between the West and Islam being a highly topical issue in world politics today, this book is a radical piece of counter-intuitive thinking on the clash of civilizations theory and global politics.

The Kurdish Conflict International Humanitarian Law and Post-Conflict Mechanisms Kerim Yildiz, The Kurdish Human Rights Project and Susan Breau, University of Surrey, UK Preface by Kofi Annan This book is highly topical considering the recent resurgence of violence by the PKK, the incursions into Northern Iraq by the Turkish army and security forces and Turkey’s EU accession negotiations. More than two decades of serious conflict in Turkey are proving to be a barrier to improved relations between Turkey and the EU. This book is the first study to fully address the legal and political dimensions of the conflict, and their impact on mechanisms for conflict resolution in the region, offering a scholarly exploration of a debate that is often politically and emotionally highly charged. Kerim Yildiz and Susan Breau look at the practical application of the law of armed conflicts to the ongoing situation in Turkey and Northern Iraq. The application of the law in this region also means addressing larger questions in international law, global politics and conflict resolution. Examples include belligerency in international law, whether the ‘war on terror’ has resulted in changes to the law of armed conflict and terrorism and conflict resolution.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan represent two of the most interesting and potentially troubling events of recent decades. In the wake of 9/11, the United States and other nations went to war in Afghanistan presumably to find and either capture or kill Osama bin Laden and other leaders of Al Qaeda. Following on the heels of the war in Afghanistan, the U.S. and other nations embarked on a war in Iraq, ostensibly to find and destroy Saddam Hussein’s stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction, and eventually as the rationale evolved, to free Iraq and create a democratic government. These two wars—so similar in their beginnings—generated different responses from various publics and the mass media; they have had profound effects on the members of the armed services, on their families and relatives, and on the people of Iraq and Afghanistan.

’What Omar Ashour has produced is truly a pioneering work in an area of growing sociopolitical and geopolitical significance.’ - Saad Eddine Ibrahim, Harvard and American University in Cairo, Egypt ’The book offers a detailed and well-presented analysis of deradicalisation processes involving several of the most important Islamist insurgent/ terrorist movements today. The manuscript presents very important new insight into how and under which circumstances militant Islamist organizations may deradicalise and renounce political violence. Given the obvious policyrelevance of the analysis as well as its detailed and well-researched presentation of Islamist militancy in Egypt and Algeria, this manuscript will also be very useful in professional training for security / counterterrorism professionals as well as in graduate courses in Middle Eastern studies and graduate courses on international terrorism. The book is impressive.’ - Brynjar Lia, Norwegian Defence Research Establishment This is the first detailed investigation into the causes of deradicalisation among radical Islamist groups, and the conditions under which this process can succeed.

Aid and Trade in Palestine
Economic Liberalisation and Turkey
Sahar T. Rad
Togan Sübidey, Bilkent University, Turkey
Examines the nature of donor operations in Palestine, discussing how trade-related assistance is only another instance of donors working ‘around’ the Israeli-Palestine conflict and how aid to Palestine cannot bring about significant improvement as long as the Palestinian economy is fundamentally affected by Israeli occupation, settlement and blockade.
This book examines the impact of economic liberalisation in Turkey and its approach to the elimination of barriers to trade. The experience of Turkey, its approach to liberalisation and its measures to eliminate barriers to trade serve as a useful model for other neighboring countries of the European Union.

Islam and the Everyday World Public Policy Dilemmas Edited by Sohrab Behdad, Denison University, USA and Farhad Nomani, American University of Paris, France
A new examination of how Shari’a law affects public policy both theoretically and in practice, across a wide range of public policy areas, including for example human rights and family law.
The process by which public policy is decided - through elections, debates, political processes, and political discourse - has an additional dimension in the Islamic world. This is because Shari’a (divine law) has a great deal to say on many mundane matters of everyday life and must be taken into account in matters of public policy. In addition, matters are complicated further by the fact that there are differing interpretations of the Shari’a and how it should be applied to contemporary social issues. Written by leading experts in their field, this is the first comprehensive single volume analysis of Islam and public policy in the English language and offers further understanding of Islam and its wider social and political implications. Selected Contents: 1. Islam, Revivalism and Public Policy 2. Ideology and Institutions in Islamist Approaches to Public Policy 3. Islamism and Economics: Policy Implications for a Free Society 4. Islamic Jurisprudence and Public Policy 5. Islam and Human Rights Policy 6. Women, Sexuality and Social Policy in Islamic Cultures 7. Muslim Family Law: Articulating Gender, Class and the State 8.

The Legal and Regulatory Aspects of Islamic Banking
Edited by Amer al-Roubaie and Shafiq Alvi
David Price, Charles Darwin University, Australia
A Comparative Look at the United Kingdom and Malaysia
Series: Routledge Research in Intellectual Property
Abdul Karim Aldohni, Newcastle University, UK
Series: Routledge Research in Finance and Banking Law
Islamic banking refers to a financial system which is consistent with principles of Islamic law (or ‘sharia’) and guided by Islamic economics. In particular, Islamic law prohibits ‘riba’ or usury, the collection and payment of interest. Additionally, Islamic law prohibits investing in businesses considered unlawful (‘haram’) or contrary to Islamic values. In recent years, a number of Islamic banks have been created to cater to the growing demand, driven by globalization and the vast wealth of some Muslim states in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, and Islamic finance has moved from a niche position to become a mainstream component of the global banking system.
This book looks at the development of intellectual property rights in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, in the context of their WTO memberships and consequent compliance with the TRIPS Agreement.
Selected Contents: 1. ’Infidels at the Gates’ – Introduction and Context 2. ’The Golden Thread that Binds’ – The Shariah and Intellectual Property Protection 3.

Islamic Banking and Finance Series: Critical Concepts in Economics
A large amount of research has been undertaken into this subject (much of which highlights the institutional aspects of Islamic social, economic, and financial arrangements) and this new four-volume collection from Routledge meets the need for a one-stop collection of the best scholarship. Its scope extends from the time of the creation of Islamic institutions in accordance with Quranic principles to the present day. And while Islamic Banking and Finance surveys the historic evolution of Islamic financial institutions over the last 1,400 years, it also illustrates the directions in which the subject is moving, including its role in the new world order, good governance, and transparency, and how the gaps can be bridged between Islamic and conventional financial systems. With a full index, together with a comprehensive introduction newly written by the editor which places the collected material in its historical and intellectual context, Islamic Banking and Finance is an essential work of reference. It is destined to be valued by economists— as well as by scholars, students, and researchers of Islamic Studies, Middle East Studies, and Business Studies—as a vital resource. Selected Contents: Volume I: Pre- and Early Islamic Finance 1. Pre-Islamic Financial Setup 2. Early Islamic Financial System 3. Islamic Economic Philosophy Volume II: Evolution of the Islamic Financial System 4. Islamic Finance: Evolution and Institutions 5. The Discourse on Interest: Religious Context 6.

Common Sense and Philosophy in Islam Avital Wohlman, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel Translated by David Burrell, Notre Dame University, USA This book examines the contrasting interpretations of Islam and the Qur’an by Averroes and Al-Ghazali, as a way of helping us untangle current impasses affecting each Abrahamic faith. This has traditionally been portrayed as a battle between philosophy and theology, but the book shows that Averroes was rather more religious and Al-Ghazali more philosophical than they are usually portrayed.

Customary Law in the Modern World
Religious Studies Perspectives
Yasser Elsheshtawy, UAE University, United Arab Emirates
The Crossfire of Sudan’s War of Identities
Series: Planning, History and Environment Series
Customary Law in the Modern World is the study of a coherent and well-established legal system, which is now operating in the context of a modern nation-state and therefore poised between remaining relevant and the threat of marginalization.
This book explores Dubai’s history from its beginnings as a small fishing village to its place on the world stage today, using historical narratives, travel descriptions, novels and fictional accounts by local writers to bring color to the history of the city’s urban development. With case studies and surveys the author explores the economic and political forces driving Dubai’s urban growth, its changing urbanity and its place within the global city network.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Women and Religion Edited by Pamela Klassen, University of Toronto, Canada This collection is an essential research tool for all students specializing in religion and women’s studies, and will be equally useful to those working in related fields such as anthropology, cultural studies, history, literary studies, philosophy, political science, psychology, and theology. By tracing the evolution of the topic, from the beginnings of feminist research on religion to more contemporary debates about categorizations of gender in the study of religion, this four-volume collection serves the needs of both specialist and generalist users. Women and Religion includes essays treating a broad range of religious traditions, while focusing on particular methodological and theoretical concerns common to the study of women and religion. Organized thematically, each volume includes the most formative theoretical contributions to the field, grouped together with articles that explore a particular set of issues from a range of traditions, with the use of methodologies drawn from anthropology, history, sociology, textual criticism, and religious studies. Each volume’s introductory essay explicitly problematizes the central categories of analysis operating in the study of women and religion while also setting the articles in historical context.
Edited by Bryan Rennie, Westminster College, USA and Philip L. Tite, Willamette College, USA
September 11 and the subsequent War on Terror continues to cast a long shadow over the world. Religion, Terror and Violence brings together a group of distinguished scholars from a range of backgrounds and disciplines to explore the claim that acts of violence – most spectacularly the attack of September 11, 2001 and the international reaction to it – were intimately linked to cultural and social authorizing processes that could be called ’religious.’ This book provides a nuanced but incisive insight into the reaction of the discipline of religious studies to the post 9/11 world.

Politics and the Religious Imagination
Anti-Muslim Prejudice Past and Present
Gender and Diversity in the Middle East and North Africa
Edited by John H.A. Dyck and Paul S. Rowe, both at Trinity Western University, Canada and Jens Zimmermann
Edited by Maleiha Malik, King’s College London, UK
Edited by Zahia Smail Salhi, University of Leeds, UK
This book makes a unique contribution to the study of anti-Muslim prejudice by placing the issue in both its past and present context. They cover historical and contemporary subjects from around the eleventh century through to the contemporary period. The book examines the form that anti-Muslim/Islamic prejudice takes; historical influences on contemporary forms of anti-Muslim/Islamic prejudice; how such prejudice relates to other forms of prejudice, e.g. racism, antisemitism, sexism; and how prejudice becomes institutionalized.
This book aims to highlight the dynamics of gender relations and the diversity which characterises the lives of Middle Eastern and North African women.

This book concentrates on the contemporary period, but it also hopes to place this debate in its historical context: by examining, for example, the medieval period as a forerunner to contemporary forms of prejudice; and the impact of colonial expansion in the Muslim world. The book also includes a study of anti-Muslim prejudice from a wide range of disciplines, including politics, sociology, philosophy, history, international relations, law and cultural studies and comparative literature. The book also contributes to our understanding of the different levels at which anti-Muslim prejudice emerges and operates - the local, the national and the transnational – by including case studies from a range of contexts including Britain, Europe and the US. This book was published as a special issue of Patterns of Prejudice. Selected Contents: 1. Can the Walls Hear? Gil Anidjar 2.

History Routledge Studies in the History of Iran and Turkey Series Edited by: Carole Hillenbrand, University of Edinburgh, UK
New
This series publishes important studies dealing with the history of Iran and Turkey in the period 1000-1700 AD. This period is significant because it heralds the advent of large numbers of nomadic Turks from Central Asia into the Islamic world. Their influence was felt particularly strongly in Iran and Turkey, territories which they permanently transformed. The series presents translations of medieval Arabic and Persian texts which chronicle the history of the medieval Turks and Persians, and also publishes scholarly monographs which handle themes of medieval Turkish and Iranian history such as historiography, nomadisation and folk Islam.

War, Media, and Popular Culture Roger Stahl, University of Georgia, USA
Militainment, Inc. offers provocative, sometimes disturbing insight into the ways that war is presented and viewed as entertainment—or ’militainment’—in contemporary American popular culture. War has been the subject of entertainment for centuries, but Roger Stahl argues that a new interactive mode of militarized entertainment is recruiting its audience as virtual-citizen soldiers. The author examines a wide range of historical and contemporary media examples to demonstrate the ways that war now invites audiences to enter the spectacle as an interactive participant through a variety of channels—from news coverage to online video games to reality television. Simply put, rather than presenting war as something to be watched, the new interactive militainment presents war as something to be played and experienced vicariously. Stahl examines the challenges that this new mode of militarized entertainment poses for democracy, and explores the controversies and resistant practices that it has inspired. This volume is essential reading for anyone interested in the relationship between war and media, and it sheds surprising light on the connections between virtual battlefields and the international conflicts unfolding in Iraq and Afghanistan today.

History and Society in the Islamic World Series Edited by Anoushiravan Ehteshami, Durham University, UK and George Joffe, University of Cambridge, Contemporary events in the Islamic world dominate the headlines and emphasise the crises of the Middle East and North Africa, yet the Islamic World is far larger and more varied than we realise. Current affairs there too mask the underlying trends and values that have, over time, created a fascinating and complex world. This new series is intended to reveal that other Islamic reality by looking at its history and society over the ages, as well as at the contemporary scene. It will also reach far further afield, bringing in Central Asia and the Far East as part of a cultural space sharing common values and beliefs but manifesting a vast diversity of experience and social order.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
The Routledge Historical Atlas of Jerusalem
The Ottoman Empire and Its Aftermath The Emergence of the Modern Middle East and Balkans Edited by M. Sükrü Hanioglu, Princeton University, USA This four-volume study is a major compilation for students of Ottoman history and culture, particularly the late period where the political and social structures were not able to evolve in the face of intellectual and industrial expansion in the outside world. The ensuing, inevitable collapse led to the British and French mandates of the entire Middle East, as well as Balkanisation, and created the conditions for the gradual emergence of nation-states through the course of the twentieth century, as well as a host of wars and ethnic conflicts, some of which are still extant. It is the late period, roughly 1789-1922, which attracts the most students because of the interest in the external influences and the political aftermath. However, the collection also contains key background articles to set the historical scene and provide full context. An enhanced understanding of late Ottoman history is indispensable not only to comprehend modern Turkey or even the vast geographical area that was once ruled from Istanbul. It is also essential for the study of European and world history. The Ottoman experience may serve as a superb laboratory for examining the impact of modernity in non-European settings. Given the size of the subject matter and the need to have a good knowledge of numerous languages (in addition to the extinct Ottoman language, which changed considerably from one century to the next), this is a well-edited compilation of major articles that will overshadow all general works on Ottoman history. Volume 1 focuses on Ottoman administration, bureaucracy, and diplomacy (as well as bureaucratic modernisation and reforms). Volume 2 examines Ottoman intellectual life and culture, with an emphasis on cultural modernisation and westernisation. Volume 3 looks at Ottoman economic and social life, and Volume 4 focuses on Ottoman politics.

Martin Gilbert Series: Routledge Historical Atlases This unique Atlas traces the history of Jerusalem from biblical times to the present day. Each map is illustrated by a facing page of prints or photographs, to give a complete pictorial and cartographic overview of this fascinating city of the Middle East. Coverage begins in ancient times, showing the impact of the Jews, Christians, Muslims, Romans and Crusaders on the development of this holy city. Special emphasis is placed on the last 150 years, during which Jerusalem grew from a remote and impoverished town of the Ottoman Empire to a flourishing capital city. Up-to-date maps and figures show the recent expansion of suburbs and settlements, the Wall and new urban and political developments. An extensive bibliography provides a rich source of information on further reading.

Works written from a sociolinguistic (e.g. language variation), socio-historical (e.g. language history), sociological (e.g. language planning), or psycholinguistic (e.g. language acquisition) perspective are welcome, as are studies of Arabic stylistics, pragmatics, and discourse analysis. Descriptive dialectological works also fall within the scope of the Series, as do works which focus on the evolution of mediaeval Arabic linguistic thought.

Cultural Expression in Context
The Iranian Languages
Anastasia Valassopoulos
Edited by Gernot Windfuhr, University of Michigan, USA
Series: Routledge Research in Postcolonial Literatures
Series: Routledge Language Family
Jewishness and Masculinity from the Modern to the Postmodern
This book engages with contemporary Arab women writers from Egypt, Palestine, Lebanon and Algeria. In spite of Edward Said’s groundbreaking reappraisal of the uneven relationship between the West and the Arab world in Orientalism, there has been little postcolonial criticism of Arab writing. Anastasia Valassopoulos raises the profile of Arab women writers by examining how they negotiate contexts and experiences that have come to be identified with postcoloniality such as the preoccupation with Western feminism, political conflict and war, the social effects of non-conformity and female empowerment, and the negotiation of influential cultural discourses such as orientalism. Contemporary Arab Women Writers revitalizes theoretical concepts associated with feminism, gender studies and cultural studies, and explores how art history, popular culture, translation studies, psychoanalysis and news media all offer productive ways to associate with Arab women’s writing that work beyond a limiting socio-historical context. Discussing the writings of authors including Ahdaf Soueif, Nawal El Saadawi, Leila Sebbar, Liana Badr and Hanan Al-Shaykh, this book represents a new direction in postcolonial literary criticism that transcends constrictive monothematic approaches. 2007: 234x156: 192pp Hb: 978-0-415-35355-7: $120.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415353557

The Arabian Nights in Children’s Literature Robert Mack
The Iranian languages form the major eastern branch of the Indo-European group of languages, itself part of the larger Indo-Iranian family. Estimated to have between 150 and 200 million native speakers, the Iranian languages constitute one of the world’s major language families. This comprehensive volume offers a detailed overview of the principle languages which make up this group: Old Iranian, Middle Iranian, and New Iranian. The Iranian Languages is divided into fifteen chapters. The introductory chapters by the editor present a general overview and a detailed discussion of the linguistic typology of Iranian. The individual chapters which follow are written by leading experts in the field. These provide the reader with concise, non-technical descriptions of a range of Iranian languages. Each chapter follows the same pattern and sequence of topics, taking the reader through the significant features not only of phonology and morphology but also of syntax; from phrase level to complex sentences and pragmatics. Ample examples on all levels are provided with detailed annotation for the non-specialist reader. In addition, each chapter covers lexis, sociolinguistic and typological issues, and concludes with annotated sample texts. This unique resource is the ideal companion for undergraduate and postgraduate students of linguistics and language. It will also be of interest to researchers or anyone with an interest in historical linguistics, linguistics anthropology and language development. Selected Contents: Old Iranian. Middle Iranian.

Series: Children’s Literature and Culture The tales of Sinbad the Sailor and Aladdin have long entertained children in the English-speaking world. In this volume, Mack traces the evolution of these tales in works for children from the late eighteenth-century to the present day. Examining how the tales have changed as they’ve been adapted for children, Mack argues that it was no coincidence that the adaptations began immediately following the creation of British India, and that the first adaptations of the tales reflected a desire to import a European morality to Britain’s ’Oriental empire.’ From the 1920s onward, however, adaptations began to include a variety of textual apparatus, ranging from notes and glossaries to maps, biographies, and supplementary essays, all of which helped the young readers more fully and sympathetically understand the environment from which the stories originated, and the world they sought to depict.

Neil Davison, Oregon State University, USA Series: Routledge Studies in Twentieth-Century Literature This study examines the impact of racial and religious constructs of Jewish masculinity on a select group of male writers, including Hemingway, Joyce, and Roth, during the Modernist and Postmodern eras. In reading the work of these authors and others, Davison demonstrates how religious-based prejudices as well as doctrinal Judaic concepts were sustained in the discourse of race and gender surrounding ’the Jew.’ In general, the project thus engages a dynamic composed of the historically constitutive Jewish racial portrait, the psychosexual impact of that racial theory as internalized by Jewish males, and differing or conflicting discussions of Judaic-based gender and codes of male behavior. By focusing alternately on gentile and Jewish writers, Davison explores how the racial/gender construct of ’the feminized Jew’ was pivotal to each in negotiating male-selfhood during his encounter with modernity.

Islamic Studies Critical Concepts in Islamic Studies Forthcoming Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Islamic Law Edited by Gavin Picken, American University of Sharjah, UAE Islamic law is a legal tradition entrenched within a religious context; it is one of the most intriguing and fascinating areas of Islamic Studies. Many practitioners of Islam believe that their lives should be governed by a divinely revealed and sanctioned form of law that affects every aspect of their daily routines. Thus, whether it be a conventional religious act such as prayer, a customary practice such as marriage, or commercial activities such as trade, all these activities are determined by their legal validity within the Islamic law. Islamic law has developed over many centuries of juristic effort into a subtle, complex, and highly developed reality. Thus, Islamic law, like any other, has its ’sources’ (al-masadir); it also has its ’guiding principles’ (al-usul) that dictate the nature of its ’evidence’ (al-adilla); it equally employs the use of ’legal maxims’ (al-qawa’id) and utilizes a number of underlying ’objectives’ (al-maqasid) to underpin the structure of its legal theory. Volume I of this new Routledge collection brings together the best scholarship to detail the origins and sources of Islamic law. The materials in Volume II, meanwhile, examine the genesis of schools of law, their utilization of specific juristic methodologies, and their development of legal theory. Volume III focuses on the consolidation and stagnation of Islamic law in the medieval period, since although the development of the schools and a number of competing legal theories played a huge role in the codification of Islamic law, at the same time the competitive nature of such methodologies led to divisiveness because of strict adherence to a specific school. The final volume in the collection examines Islamic law today, and the challenges of living in a modern, technologically advanced world.

Jihad and Martyrdom
The Hadith
Edited by David Cook, Rice University, USA
Articulating the Beliefs and Constructs of Classical Islam
Jihad (or ‘struggle’) and martyrdom in Islam have an ever-greater relevance in today’s world, but there remains a great deal of ignorance about these critical concepts. This new four-volume collection from Routledge brings together a broad range of scholarly opinion to provide a work of reference to assist students and researchers who wish to unravel and understand the many historical constructions of jihadism and martyrology. Volume I contains material on classical and pre-modern manifestations of jihad, focusing on the early Islamic conquests and the development of the concepts of jihad both in the field and within the legal literature up to and including the period of the Crusades (1099–1291). Volume II, meanwhile, explores alternative analyses of jihad, such as Sufi interpretations of the ‘greater jihad’, Shi’ite interpretations of jihad, and the martyrology of both groups. Volume III focuses on colonial and near-contemporary manifestations of jihad, including alternative versions, such as those of the Bahais and the Ahmadis that radically reinterpret the concept, and anti-colonial jihadi movements in Africa, the Middle East, Russia, India, and Southeast Asia. The final volume in the collection deals with contemporary thinking about jihad and radical Islam, concentrating on the legal discussion of contemporary radical Muslim tactics, the development of jihadi mythologies, the ideological tensions within the Salafi jihadi world, and the emergence of contemporary Shi’ite interpretations of jihad. With a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editor, Jihad and Martyrdom is an essential collection and is destined to be valued by all scholars and students of Islam as a vital one-stop research resource. November 2009: 234x156: 1600pp Hb: 978-0-415-47623-2: $1295.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415476232
Edited by Mustafa Shah, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London, UK The Prophetic traditions of Islam, which are commonly referred to as the hadiths (literally: ‘reports’), preserve the sum and substance of the utterances, deeds, directives, and descriptive anecdotes connected with the life of the Prophet Muhammad and his Companions. Together with the Qur’an, the hadiths provide the religion of Islam with its principal scriptural sources. The collection features an accessible and informative introduction which presents an outline of the significance of the hadiths within the religious tradition while also reviewing classical scholarship devoted to the literature of the traditions; moreover, the introduction decisively sets into context the academic debates and arguments which are fleshed out in the articles selected. It also charts developments in the academic study of hadiths, summing up the current state of the field and features a detailed bibliography listing primary classical sources germane to the field of Prophetic traditions together with recent research monographs and articles devoted to the subject. This Major Work provides an authoritative collection of the seminal research articles produced by western academic scholarship on the subject of the hadith over the past century, including recent papers on the subject. In bringing together the finest examples of scholarship devoted to the hadith and the classical literature that surrounds it, these volumes provide an indispensable reference resource for academics, research institutions, governmental organizations, and those with a general interest in Arabic and Islamic Studies, Religious Studies, Arabic Cultural Studies, and Middle East History. Selected Contents: Volume I: Hadith: Codification, Authenticity Volume II: Isnads: Transmission, Terminology, and The Issue of Dating Volume III: Hadith: Scholarship, Perspectives, and Criticism Volume IV: Hadith: Narrative, Context, and Content October 2009: 234x156: 1667pp Hb: 978-0-415-47398-9: $975.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415473989

Islam in the West Edited by David Westerlund and Ingvar Svanberg Series: Critical Concepts in Islamic Studies In recent decades, the number of Muslims in the West has increased rapidly, and interesting transformations of Islam have taken place—to some extent with repercussions in Islamic or predominantly Muslim countries in Asia and Africa. This new four-volume Major Work collection from Routledge helps to make sense of the burgeoning scholarship in this area. Volume I (‘Regions and History’) includes studies on the historical development of Islam, as well as key work on the current situation in various regions and countries. Volume II focuses on religion and culture, while Volume III (‘Social and Economic Issues’) assembles vital materials on topics such as gender, family structures, class, poverty, and health. The final volume in the collection (‘Politics and Law’) gathers the best work on, among other things, Muslim involvement in political life; Muslim presence in the public sphere; the media coverage of Islam; and issues of integration and so-called ‘Islamophobia’. Legal issues covered include laws on freedom of religion, minority rights, separate legislation, and debates about veils and halal slaughter. With a full index, together with comprehensive introductions newly written by the editors, which place the collected material in its historical and intellectual context, Islam in the West is an essential new addition to Routledge’s Critical Concepts in Islamic Studies series. Selected Contents: Volume I: Regions and History Volume II: Religion and Culture Volume III: Social and Economic Issues Volume IV: Politics and Law April 2010: 234x156: 1600pp Hb: 978-0-415-48124-3: $1295.00 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415481243

Islamic Law and the Law of Armed Conflict
Major Work – 4 Volume Set
The conflict in Pakistan Niaz A. Shah, University of Hull, UK Series: Routledge Research in the Law of Armed Conflicts This book compares the Islamic law of armed conflict and the international humanitarian law, before going on to practically apply these findings to the current conflicts in Pakistan and Afghanistan. The book argues that although the origins and histories of Islamic and international law of armed conflicts are very different both regimes are to a great extent compatible. The book will explore the details of the Islamic law of armed conflict examining its origins in the Koran, the sunnah, the hadith and views of classical jurists. In doing so Niaz Shah concludes that while the Islamic law of armed conflict certainly does not cover every aspect of current armed conflicts but the primary sources of Islamic law do not put any restrictions on carving out rules to cover modern developments in today’s armed conflicts. The book will address the present situations in Pakistan and Afghanistan , examining the conduct of hostilities by all parties in the region including the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, the Pakistani and Afghan security forces and the US-led coalition forces and identifying violations of the laws of armed conflicts. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international law, Islamic law, international relations, security studies and south east Asian studies.

Islamic Political Thought and Governance Edited by Abdullah Saeed, University of Melbourne, Australia Series: Critical Concepts in Political Science Islam has had a significant impact on world history, not only as a major religion that has directed the personal beliefs and actions of individuals, but also as the basis of a distinct system of government that has developed its own institutions, practices and philosophies. This new Routledge Major Work is concerned with the development of political thought in Islam. By political thought is meant, broadly, the study and interpretation of Islamic political culture, ideas, beliefs and institutions; the contribution of key political theorists and authorities to the understanding or practice of governance; what people and groups believed about political authority and institutions and their political convictions; and how politics in the Islamic world has related to and interacted with other disciplines, such as religion, law, ethics, philosophy and statehood. Although contemporary issues in Islamic political thought are very much in the public focus at the moment, this set instead focuses on the history and development of Islamic political theories and thought, from their inception until the twentieth century. Political thought in the Muslim world is connected to its history and by understanding the past, those who study contemporary political thought will have a better grounding to understand current and future developments. Moreover, understanding how Islamic political thought developed also helps shed light on the political thought of other civilisations, such as Western political thought. Political thought in Islam did not develop in isolation – it responded to and interacted with the political institutions and theories of other civilisations throughout history. Furthermore, this compilation provides a much needed focus on the history of Islamic political thought, while bringing together a wide range of scholarship and perspectives on the subject matter. The advantage of a compilation on this subject is that students, teachers and researchers in the wider sphere of Islamic studies have access to writings that were formerly buried inside academic journals, while also having the most relevant works on this subject brought together in a handy reference tool.

Islam, Law and Identity Edited by Marinos Diamantidis, Birkbeck School of Law, UK and Adam Gearey Islam, Law and Identity brings together a range of Muslim and non Muslim scholars in order to focus on recent debates about the nature of sacred and secular law. Law is central to the complex ways in which different Muslim communities and institutions create and re-create their identities around symbols of faith and law. But what is at stake here is not a conflict between common law and Shari`a, but the possibility of opening both forms of law to different constructions of identity. Exploring a more nuanced and sophisticated understanding of the differences and similarities between the secular and the divine, this collection examines the different legacies of monotheism, and their connection with legal traditions. In so doing, it takes up the specific conjunctions of traditions that give meaning, and constitute identity, in relation to such terms as Shari`a law, modernity and secularisation.

British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies Published on behalf of the British Society for Middle Eastern Studies (BRISMES) EDITOR: Professor Ian Netton, University of Exeter, UK ASSOCIATE EDITORS: Professor David Seddon, University of East Anglia, UK Dr Ersun Kurtulus, University of Kent, UK Dr David Shankland, University of Bristol, UK Dr Lloyd Ridgeon, University of Glasgow, UK The British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies is a refereed academic journal published for the British Society for Middle Eastern Studies (popularly known as BRISMES). Founded in 1974 as the BRISMES Bulletin, the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies assumed its present title in 1991 reflecting its growth into a fully-fledged scholarly journal. The editors aim to maintain a balance in the journal’s coverage between the modern social sciences and the more traditional disciplines associated with Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies. They welcome scholarly contributions on all aspects of the Middle East from the end of classical antiquity and the rise of Islam. Articles on the language, literature, history, politics, economics, anthropology, sociology, geography, and the religions and cultures of the region are encouraged. The British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies also includes a vigorous review section covering publications on all subjects connected with the Middle East. This incorporates a wide range of reference and bibliographical material seldom reviewed elsewhere. The British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies is currently noted in: Anthropological Index Online; GEOBASE; Geographical Abstracts: Human Geography; International Development Abstracts; International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, Political Science Abstracts and SCOPUS; Thomson Reuters Arts & Humanities Index.
