Tibi, Bassam.

8vo. xv, 262 pp., notes, names index, subject index, hardback with d/w, mint condition, University of California Press, Los Angeles, first edition, 1998.

The author sees Islamic fundamentalism as the result of Islam's confrontation with modernity. The movement is unprecedented in Islamic history and parallels the inability of Islamic "nation-states" to integrate with the new world secular order. This study is an analysis of the politicization of religion, a global phenomenon that extends beyond Islam, and the author suggests that such global issues must be addressed within the framework of worldwide solutions.
