University of Calgary, Canada
This is an introductory text for undergraduate students
of Middle Eastern politics. It provides comprehensive
coverage of the region via both a thematic framework
examining patterns of politics, and the dedication of
individual chapters to specific countries. Drawing on
these themes as an explicit analytical tool for
understanding regional politics, topics discussed include:
• the historical influence of colonialism and major world
powers on the shaping of the modern Middle East
• the legacy of Islam
• the political and social aspects of Middle Eastern life:
alienation between state and society, poverty and
social inequality, ideological crises and renewal.
A key introductory text for students of Middle Eastern
politics and history at advanced undergraduate and
postgraduate levels, this book will also be relevant to
policy-makers and any motivated reader.

The Arab-Israeli Conflict
An Introduction and Documentary Reader
Gregory S. Mahler, Earlham College, USA and Alden R.W. Mahler, CNN International, USA
The Arab-Israeli conflict has been one of the most protracted and contentious disputes in the
Middle East. This wide-ranging textbook examines the diplomatic and historical setting
within which the conflict developed, from both the Israeli and Palestinian perspectives, and
gives a comprehensive overview of the peace process.
Enabling students to easily access and study original documents through the supportive
framework of a textbook, The Arab-Israeli Conflict:
• presents the seventy most important and widely cited documents in the history of the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict
• presents these documents in an edited form to highlight key elements
• includes an introductory chapter which sets the context for the study of the history of the area
• covers a comprehensive historical period, ranging from the nineteenth Century to the
present day
• incorporates a wide range of pedagogical aids: original documents, maps and boxed sections.
This important new textbook is an essential aid for courses on the Arab-Israeli conflict and the Middle East peace
process, and will be an invaluable reference tool for all students of political science, Middle East studies and history.

The Modern Middle East
Ilan Pappé, University of Exeter, UK
’An important survey of the vital and much-
neglected cultural and social history of the region.’
- John Chalcraft, University of Edinburgh, UK
This hugely successful, ground-breaking book is the first
introductory textbook on the Modern Middle East to
foreground the urban, rural, cultural and women’s

Pappé begins his narrative at the end of the First World

present day with the political discourse of Islam.
Providing full geographical coverage of the region, The
Modern Middle East:
• opens with a carefully argued introduction which
outlines the methodology used in the textbook
• provides a thematic and comparative approach to the
region, helping students to see the peoples of the
Middle East and the developments that affect their
lives as part of a larger world
• includes insights gained from new historiographical
trends and a critical approach to conventional state-
and nation-centred historiographies
• includes case studies, debates, maps, photos, an
up-to-date bibliography and a glossarial index.
This second edition has been brought right up to date
with recent events, and includes a new chapter on the

Peter Mandaville, George Mason
University, USA
’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.

M. Cobb, University of Pennsylvania
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.
An Introduction
Abdullah Saeed, University of Melbourne, Australia
There is much more to the
Qur’an than the selective
quotations favoured by Islamic
fundamentalists. This book
provides a student-friendly
guide to the many ways in
which the Qur’an can be read.
Designed for both Muslims and
Western non-Muslim students,
it examines the Qur’an in
Western scholarship as well as
giving an overview of the rich
interpretive traditions from the
time of the Prophet Muhammad to the present day.
This guide is a concise introduction to all aspects of the
Qur’an: history, understanding and interpretation,
providing:
• coverage of both pre-modern and modern periods
• plenty of examples to illustrate key points and aid
student understanding

For students and anyone interested in the history, effects
and consequences of these Islamic movements, Islamic
Fundamentalism since 1945 is the book to buy.

Morocco
Challenges to Tradition and Modernity
James N. Sater, American University of Sharjah, UAE
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
• trade policies with Europe
• Morocco’s Western Sahara policy
• ways of dealing with Political Islam
• the extent to which European influence has affected
Moroccan society
Easily accessible to non-specialists, practitioners, and
upper level undergraduate students, the book will be
essential reading for those working in the fields of
Comparative Politics, International Relations and Middle
East Studies.

Islam in the Eyes of the West
Images and Realities in an Age of Terror
Tareq Ismael, University of Calgory, Canada and
Andrew Rippin, University of Victoria, Canada
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.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Politics of Modern Iran
Edited by Ali M. Ansari, University of St Andrews, UK
Series: Critical Issues in Modern Politics
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.
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.

divisions and weakness of opposition groupings.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Politics of the Modern
Arab World
Edited by Laleh Khalili
Series: Critical Issues in Modern Politics
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.

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.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Democracy, Reform, and
Authoritarianism in the Arab
World
Edited by Gerd Nonneman
Series: Critical Concepts in the Modern Politics of the
Middle East
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.
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.
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.

Global Jihadism
Theory and Practice
Jarret M. Brachman
Series: Cass Series on Political Violence
’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.

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.

Political Islam, World Politics

Democratic Peace and Euro-Islam versus
Global Jihad
Bassam Tibi, University of Goettingen, Germany
’This book makes a profound
contribution. Bassam Tibi’s
analysis is both wide-
ranging 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

concepts and fascinating detail derived from his
widespread research and contact with significant

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.

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 Kurdish Conflict explores the practical possibilities of
conflict resolution in the region, examining the political
dynamics of the region, and suggesting where lessons
can be drawn from other peace processes, such as in
Northern Ireland
This book will be of great value to policy-makers,
regional experts, and others interested in international
humanitarian law and conflict resolution.

Mixed city is a term widely used in Israel to describe

Handbook of War and Society
Edited by Steven Carlton-Ford, University of Cincinnatti, USA and
Morten G. Ender, United States Military Academy, West Point, USA
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.

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

Islamic Banking and Finance
Edited by Amer al-Roubaie and Shafiq Alvi
Series: Critical Concepts in Economics
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.
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.

Al-Ghazali, Averroes and the
Interpretation of the Qur’an
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.
Selected Contents: Introduction 1. Journeys of Ghazali and
Averroes to their Diverse Conceptions of the Role of Reason
2. From the Chimera of Philosophy to the Evidence of ’The
Just Balance’ 3. The Decisive Criterion of the Distinction

September 11 and the

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.

Anti-Muslim Prejudice
Past and Present
Edited by Maleiha Malik, King’s College London, 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 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.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
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.
Each volume has its own introduction, plus short notes
covering individual sections (or in some cases, articles).

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.
Supplemented with a full index, Islamic Law includes a
comprehensive introduction newly written by the editor
which places the collected material in its historical and
intellectual context. It is certain to be valued as a vital
research resource.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
Jihad and Martyrdom
Edited by David Cook, Rice University, USA
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.

Major Work – 4-Volume Set
The Hadith
Articulating the Beliefs and Constructs of
Classical Islam
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.

Islamic Law and the Law of
Armed Conflict
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.

Major Work – 4 Volume Set
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
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.
