hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Torn dust jacket with creases on the spine. -- This study by Madawi Al-Rasheed, then Professor of Anthropology of Religion at King's College London, examines the contested meanings of Wahhabism and Salafism within Saudi Arabia itself, challenging the external tendency to treat these terms as interchangeable or monolithic. Drawing on classical religious sources, contemporary writings and interviews, the book presents an ethnography of consent and confrontation, tracing how Saudi citizens debate religion and politics in both traditional and novel venues, often violating official taboos. The analysis traces the historical compact between the Al Saud ruling family and the Wahhabi religious establishment from its eighteenth-century origins, showing how this alliance created a system demanding complete submission to political authority while preaching total submission to God. Al-Rasheed highlights that while the state uses religious nationalism to maintain power, many Saudis are well aware of the contradictions between official rhetoric and lived reality. Subsequent chapters examine how mass education, printing, new communication technologies and global media have fractured the religious establishment's monopoly on interpretation, producing a spectrum of voices ranging from quietist loyalists through reformist critics to violent jihadists. A significant portion of the work provides a detailed analysis of internet exchanges involving jihadist intellectuals, such as the "takfiri" thinker Nasir al-Fahad, whose works illustrate the intellectual dimensions of modern jihadism. A central argument concerns the unintended consequences of state manipulation of religious discourse: the Saudi youth who were celebrated and supported as Islamic vanguards during the Afghan jihad of the 1980s became the dangerous, evolving threat of the 1990s and beyond, as returning veterans turned their ideology against the state itself. The book examines how this dynamic generated both the Sahwa (Awakening) movement and its more radical offshoots, producing debates whose trajectory escaped the control of those who initiated them. Listed by Choice magazine as one of the outstanding academic titles of 2007, the work remains directly relevant to understanding the religious and political tensions underlying Mohammed bin Salman's post-2017 reforms, the ongoing redefinition of Saudi national identity, and broader debates about the relationship between state power and religious authority across the Muslim world.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The terms Wahhabi or Salafi are seen as interchangeable and frequently misunderstood by outsiders. However, as Madawi al-Rasheed explains in a fascinating exploration of Saudi Arabia in the twenty-first century, even Saudis do not agree on their meaning. Under the influence of mass education, printing, new communication technology, and global media, they are forming their own conclusions and debating religion and politics in traditional and novel venues, often violating official taboos and the conservative values of the Saudi society. Drawing on classical religious sources, contemporary readings and interviews, Al-Rasheed presents an ethnography of consent and contest, exploring the fluidity of the boundaries between the religious and political. Bridging the gap between text and context, the author also examines how states and citizens manipulate religious discourse for purely political ends, and how this manipulation generates unpredictable reactions whose control escapes those who initiated them.…

In Saudi Arabia there are now open debates about religion and politics, often in violation of official taboos.
