Introduction -- Mixed messages and multiple agendas : the politics of women and Islam -- Trends and transformations in contemporary Islamic hermeneutics -- Identity and interpretation : dialogue and the negotiation of meaning -- The transnational and the politics of community -- Muslim society and state : the politics of public space -- Muslim woman as self/other : the politics of identity -- Conclusion: A space for connectivity and dynamism.
When Muslim women from diverse national and cultural contexts meet one another through transnational dialogue and networking, what happens to their sense of identity and social agency? This is a compelling account of conversations that are bringing new energy and dynamism into women's activism in a world of collapsing distances.
