He provides a new interpretation of Islamic Fundamentalism through a detailed analysis of the ideas of key Islamic intellectuals and argues that the Iranian Revolution was not a simple clash between modernity and tradition but an attempt to accommodate modernity within a sense of authentic Islamic identity and culture. He concludes by assessing the future of secularism and democracy in the Middle East in general, and in Iran in particular.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47591105560727,"sku":"9780521659970","price":3212.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780521659970.webp?v=1774971624","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/intellectual-discourse-and-the-politics-of-modernization-negotiating-modernity-in-iran-9780521659970","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
