Islam and the West The Global Agenda for the 21st Century

A broad-ranging assessment of relations between the Muslim and Western worlds in the contemporary era set in the context of the way these have evolved historically. Arguing that the relations have been marked by long periods of peaceful coexistence, but also by many instances of tension, hostility, and mutual recrimination, Amin Saikal assesses the impact of the continuing Arab-Israeli conflict, the consequences of the Iranian revolution and of the wars in the Gulf and Afghanistan, and charts a course for future co-existence.Saikal, Amin is the author of 'Islam and the West The Global Agenda for the 21st Century', published 2007 under ISBN 9781403998378 and ISBN 140399837X.
