About the Book: Vying for Allahs Vote: Understanding Islamic Parties, Political Violence, and Extremism in Pakistan Vying for Allahs Vote: Understanding Islamic Parties, Political Violence, and Extremism in Pakistan studies how religion, politics, and policy are inextricably linked in Pakistan. In this book, Haroon K. Ullah analyses the origins, ideologies, bases of support, and electoral successes of the largest and most influential Islamic parties in Pakistan. Based on his extensive fieldwork in Pakistan, he develops a new typology for understanding and comparing the discourses put forth by these parties in order to assess what drives them and what separates the moderate from the extreme. A better understanding of the range of parties is critical for knowing how the US and other Western nations can engage states where Islamic political parties hold both political and moral authority.
