Summary: The needs of democracy itself within an Islamic context
Comment: Thoughtfully and insightfully written by Susan Buck-Morss (Professor of Political Philosophy and Social Theory, Cornell University), Thinking Past Terror: Islamism And Critical Theory On The Left surveys the contemporary literature on the relationship of Islam to modernity, and exhorts the importance of thinking beyond the impacts of terrorism and counter-terrorism to better understand the needs of democracy itself within an Islamic context as well as a multiethnic, multi-religious, global environment. Stressing that domination and consensus are most strongly maintained by the disorganization of dissent, Thinking Past Terror looks forward to the goal of a cosmopolitan Left that can find unity and strength to remain viable in ever-changing times. Thinking Past Terror is an especially timely and recommended addition to Islamic Studies reference collections and reading lists.
