Reviews

"Despite the plethora of work on Islam and politics, few have focused systematically and methodologically on the significant transformations many of the Islamic movements are currently experiencing. Post-Islamism fills a serious gap in the existing literature and broadens our understanding of the transitions of Islamic movements and the extent and implications of this change." -- Emad El-Din Shahin, Professor of Public Policy at the School of Global
Affairs and Public Policy at the American University in Cairo
"Post-Islamism provides a fresh and cogent analysis to one of the most visible and important phenomena in Muslim politics. The arguments and thoughts presented refute the essentialist vision of Islamism as a stagnant and immutable phenomenon. It also underscores that post-Islamism can be viewed as a "stage" between the traditional Islamism and "something" that is still underway." --Sociology of Islam
"...[A] compelling piece of scholarship." --Journal of Church and State
