More about the book
In the age of ISIS and rising anti-Muslim bigotry (embodied in the rise of Donald Trump), the claim that the Islam and Muslim societies are essentially and enduringly anti-democratic has again become mainstream. This book forcefully and convincingly repudiates this proposition. Focusing on the fascinating case of Tunisia and drawing up his vast erudition on the study of democracy, Alfred Stepan makes an important and unique contribution in understanding the relationship between religion and democracy in Muslim societies.
