NEW TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS IN THE WORLD OF ISLAM Edited by PETER B. CLARKE

This volume contains contributions from an international team. Articles on mainstream Islam cover Europe, China and South Africa and focus especially on the variety of responses to recent political and cultural developments including the collapse of Communism and Apartheid.

The focus then switches to a much neglected theme: the new forms of Islamic insiped movements and religiosity including neo-Sufism in North America and Europe, the Nation of Islam, Subud and Ismailism, all of which are expanding across the Western World.

A multidiscipinary volume, the contents will be of interest and relevance to all students of Islam and comparative religion.
