More about the book

The book explores the rise of Islamist environmentalism across various regions, highlighting how Muslim communities are responding to environmental challenges amidst globalization. It investigates the motivations of six Islamist groups, including the Muslim Brotherhood and Al-Qaeda, and their influence on environmental policies grounded in Islamic principles. Key thematic areas include land and water management, pollution, and energy issues. Emmanuel Karagiannis aims to broaden the understanding of this phenomenon through an interdisciplinary approach combining political science and Islamic studies.
