The Routledge Handbook of Political Islam provides a multidisciplinary overview of the phenomenon of political Islam, one of the key political movements of our time. Drawing on the expertise from some of the top scholars in the world, it examines the main issues surrounding political Islam across the world, from aspects of Muslim integration in the West to questions of political legitimacy in the Muslim world.
Bringing together an international team of renowned and respected experts on the topic, the chapters in the book present a critical account of:

Historical background
Geographical spread of Islamist movements
Political strategies adopted by Islamist groups
Terrorism
Attitudes towards democracy
Relations between Muslims and the West in the international sphere
Challenges of integration
Gender relations
Presenting readers with the diversity of views on political Islam in a nuanced and dispassionate manner, this handbook is an essential addition to the existing literature on Islam and politics. It will be of interest across a wide range of disciplines, including political science, Islamic studies, sociology and history.
