Alastair Crooke presents a compelling account of the ideas and energy which are mobilising the Islamic world. The story of the emerging Islamist Revolution is largely one of an Islamic response to western thinking based around individualism and personal relationships with the divine, juxtaposed to the Islamist demand to place human values above politics and self-interest. Crooke argues that the West faces a mass mobilisation against the US-led Western project. The roots of this conflict are described in terms of religious themes that extend back over 500 years. They represent clashing systems of thinking and values. Islamists have a vision for the future of their own societies which would entail radical change from Western norms. Resistance is presented as the means to force Western behaviour to change and to expose the essential differences between the two modes of thinking." -- Publisher's description. aDescription based on print version record. 0aIslam and politics. 0aIslam and civil society. 0aReligion and state. 0aIslamic fundamentalism.07aSchiiten2swd07aIslam2swd07aRevolution2swd07aWiderstand2swd 7aIranxRevolution (1978-1979)2swd17aIslamisme.2gtt17aVerzet.2gtt17aRevoluties.2gtt 4aElectronic books.08iPrint version:aCrooke, Alastair.tResistance.dLondon ; New York : Pluto Press, 2009z9780745328867w(DLC) 2009284128w(OCoLC)298778386403NetLibraryuhttp://www.netLibrary.com/urlapi.asp?action=summary&v=1&bookid=329637 acpp1723AUTO a02bN$T c49892d49892
