Beskrivning
From North Africa to Indonesia, Muslim populations have struggled to cope with the new environmental realities. However, in the era of globalisation, institutionalised Islamist parties, particularly in government, are increasingly addressing green issues and suggesting policies in order to help protect water supplies, reduce pollution and increase tree plantation. This applies to Islamists who participate in electoral politics, as well as those who are classified as transnational or militant. Delving into the causes of this new environmentalism phenomenon, Emmanuel Karagiannis explores the religious and political motivations of five Islamist groups and assesses the degree of influence that Islamic texts, rulings and principles have on the green policies pursued.

Recensioner i media

Drawing on his extensive experience as a political scientist studying　Islamist movements, Emmanuel Karagiannis has expanded his research with an examination of their wider agendas through the lens of eco-theology. By addressing this largely understudied aspect of Islamist activism and ideology, Why Islamists Go Green provides a welcome addition to the literature on militant political Islam.
