{"product_id":"fundamentalism-malise-ruthven-9780199212705","title":"Fundamentalism: A Very Short Introduction","description":"Fundamentalism is seen as the major threat to world peace today, a conclusion impossible to ignore since the events in New York on September 11, 2001. But what does \"fundamentalism\" really mean? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSince it was coined by American Protestant evangelicals in the 1920s, the use of the term \"fundamentalist\" has expanded to include a diverse range of radical conservatives and ideological purists, not all religious. Fundamentalism could now mean both militant Israeli settlers as well as the Islamist radicals who oppose them, it can mean Christians, Hindus, animal liberationists, and even Buddhist nationalists. Here, Middle East expert Malise Ruthven investigates fundamentalism's historical, social, religious, political, and ideological roots, and tackles the polemic and stereotypes surrounding this complex phenomena--one that eludes simple definition, yet urgently needs to be understood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Malise Ruthven\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199212708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199212705\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/08\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.88h x 5.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Malise Ruthven","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996712435967,"sku":"9780199212705","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cd9f3428-f02a-40b0-8051-d21272450a39.jpg?v=1683343258","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fundamentalism-malise-ruthven-9780199212705","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
