-This is a thought-provoking book with some original analytical and theoretical insights and valuable case-studies. The focus on governance through a colonial/post-colonial prism offers an illuminating perspective of considerable interest to scholars of Islam and social scientists in other fields.�[-]-- Ralph Grillo, Emeritus Professor of Social Anthropology, School of Global Studies, University of Sussex, UK[-][-]-This book offers a fresh, innovative perspective by combining analysis of colonial state-Islam relations with contemporary situations of Islam in Europe. Such a combination highlights the relevance of history and political culture to better understand the institutional status of Islam today. I recommend this to scholars of political science and religious studies interested in the topic of Islam in the West.� -- Jocelyne Cesari, Director of the Islam in the West Program, Harvard University
