Masooda Bano Bücher

This book presents an in-depth analysis of a movement, led by a network of Islamic scholars in the West, which is leading to revival of Islamic rationalism. The book defines Islamic rationalism, explains why it is argued to present the Sunni orthodoxy, and why it is proving very popular among young Muslims.

This book draws on rich ethnographic and survey data from Pakistan to present a systematic analysis of why individuals come together to produce collectively desirable goods, and why aid often breaks down traditional institutions for collective action.
