Ever since the terrorist incident of September 11th a general understanding seems to have arisen among people that the challenges posed by Islam have now acquired human and global dimensions.

Popular Movements and Democratization in the Islamic World contains case studies of people's movements in diverse areas and periods, and it seeks to develop a comparative view of Islam and democracy that goes beyond the usual stereotype of Islam being incompatible with democracy. Unravelling the complexities that have arisen between Islam and democracy is the principal task of Islamic scholars, and this book will undoubtedly prove a starting point for all such endeavours.

While primarily intended for students and scholars, this timely and important text will prove of interest even to general readers with interests in Islamic studies.

Masatoshi KISAICHI is currently Professor of Islamic Studies at the Institute of Asian Cultures of Sophia University in Tokyo, and his research deals with the socio-political roles of Sufi orders in Egypt and Morocco. At present he is studying the relationship between popular Islam and Islamist movements in Algeria, and his recent publications include A History of the Islamist Movements of the Maghreb, (in Japanese), Hakusuisha Publisher Co., Tokyo, 2004.
