Islam's Political Culture Religion and Politics in Predivided Pakistan
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of Texas Pr
- Publish date: 10/01/1999
Nasim Jawed draws on the findings of a survey he conducted among two influential social groups -- the ulama (traditional religious leaders) and the modern professionals -- as well as on the writings of Muslim intellectuals. He probes the major Islamic positions on critical issues concerning national identity, the purpose of the state, the form of government, and free, socialist, and mixed economies.
This study contributes to an enhanced understanding of Islam's political culture worldwide, since the issues, positions, and arguments are often similar across the Muslim world. The empirical findings of the study not only outline the ideological backdrop of contemporary Islamic reassertion, but also reveal diversity as well as tensions within it.
