Drawing on fieldwork in Iraq, Pakistan, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines, Nationalism, Language, and Muslim Exceptionalism compares the politics of six Muslim separatist movements, locating shared language and print culture as a central factor in Muslim ethnonational identity.

"An entirely original and important contribution to the study of
nationalism, this book brings together a broad range of ideas about
ethnicity, language, and religion and deftly weaves together an
elegant theory that not only explains why some Muslim societies
choose to turn toward or away from fundamentalism but what to do
about it."
