N1  - Includes bibliographical references (pages 215-242) and index; Two discourses on modern Islamic political thought : fundamentalism and modernism -- Fundamentalist discourses on epistemology and political philosophy -- Fundamentalist discourses on politics : from pluralistic democracy to majoritarian tyranny -- The discourse of Hasan al-Banna on Shura, democracy, and the Islamic State -- The discourse of Sayyid Qutb on political ideology and the Islamic state -- The discourse of Hasan al-Turabi on the Islamic state and democracy
N2  - Redefines the bases and scope of modern Islamic thought, suggesting that Islamic fundamentalism might prove to be a liberating theology for the modern Islamic world. Basing his argument largely on Arabic documents, Moussalli analyzes the basic concerns of fundamentalism--epistemology, knowledge, philosophy, modernity, and science as well as politics, political philosophy, and political economy. He examines the ideas of major Muslim thinkers who have affected the contemporary Islamic revival--especially Hasan al-Banna, Sayyid Qutb, and Hasan al-Turabi--showing the range of Islamic fundamentalist views from liberal democracy to authoritarianism. He then discusses how their thinking could affect an Islamic state, from political repression at one extreme to political representation at the other. From publisher description
