Description
How is one authentically" modern? Substantively drawing on contemporary social theory, this book investigates the multiplicity of answers that Muslims have given to this question since the end of the nineteenth century. Through six historical and thematic case studies the chapters examine the historical evolution of multiple modernities within Islam. The book argues that we can observe the rise and spread of a relatively hegemonic idea according to which the relation to Islamic traditions bestows projects of Muslim modernities with cultural authenticity. At the same time, it provides an interpretation of this specifically Islamic discourse of modernity as an inherent part of global modernity in conceptual terms understood as the emergence of world society.Key FeaturesInterprets modern Muslim history as an integral part of global modernityPresents a unique combination of social theory with Islamic studiesCritically revises Eisenstadt's concept of multiple modernitiesCombines two distinct concepts of world society with theories of social emergenceSix case studies give an account on the multiple modernities within IslamA theoretically informed fresh view on the construction of modern Muslim identitiesBased on more than 30 years of experience in Muslim countries"
