CONTEMPORARY ISLAM:

Globalisation or Recolonisation?

The Muslim World in the 21st Century

Ali Mohammadi and Muhammad Ahsan

In this accessible and carefully researched text, the authors broach one of the most urgent issues thrown up by the process of contemporary globalisation – the future of the Muslim World. Their analysis probes the key material links between economic underdevelopment and

Western-Islamic cultural relations. This book is vital reading for anyone who wishes to understand the roots of the current high-profile tension in global politics and to think beyond these conflicts towards the task of building a just and peaceful global order.

Economic Development and Social Peace in Islam

Prof M. A. Mannan

This is an analytical study of economic development in the Muslim community. It stresses the need for humanising the lines of production, distribution and consumption, for reviewing problems related to poverty, and suggests alternative strategies for implementing development and social change. This text is an invaluable aid to both students and teachers of all branches of the social sciences.

Islam and the Environmental Crisis

Akhtaruddin Ahmad

The destruction of the environment is a serious problem of our time and one to which only Islam holds the answer.

Islam and the Environment

Edited by Harfiyah Abdel Haleem

Although environmental issues are sometimes viewed by Muslims as non-essential, this collection of essays by well-known personalities asserts the centrality of the environment to Islam, and invites us to look into Western and Islamic history and Islam itself for the answer to a threatening problem – the destruction of the environment.
