{"product_id":"islamism-in-morocco-malika-zeghal-9781558764439","title":"Islamism in Morocco","description":"Malika Zeghal analyzes the historical roots and recent evolution of Moroccan Islamist movements in the context of a new political system that combines pluralistic electoral competition with authoritarian government. To elucidate these ideological and institutional transformations, she stresses the role of Ulama  Muslim legal scholars] and Islamic institutions and the history of their tense and unequal relationship with an authoritarian monarchy constrained by the religious origins of its legitimacy. She analyzes the transformations in the movements' political strategies and religious discourses generated by the legalized Islamist party's integration into the political process. This book provides an original perspective on the prospects for democratization in an Arab country and the role religion plays in that process. In a clear and compelling presentation that encompasses reactions to the 2003 suicide attacks in Casablanca and the legislative election of 2007, the author combines historical analysis with her perspective, as a political scientist, on the rapidly changing dynamics of Islam and politics in Morocco.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Malika Zeghal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1558764437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781558764439\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Markus Wiener Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.82d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2009","brand":"Malika Zeghal","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302323974399,"sku":"9781558764439","price":32.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e3156c49-138a-4ba5-87ca-601ca1c03b79.jpg?v=1695160840","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/islamism-in-morocco-malika-zeghal-9781558764439","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
