Shadow Globalization, Ethnic Conflicts and New Wars
A Political Economy of Intra-state War
AvDietrich Jung
Inbunden, Engelska, 2002
2 487 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Focusing on the political economy of so-called new wars, this book presents a series of studies that analyse the complexities of current warfare by moving from the global sphere to local spots of organised violence. It thus raises questions about the very idea of intra-state wars and shows that these wars are inseparably linked to the global economy and the world political order. In this way, this study also offes a unique contribution to understanding the post-September 11 world.This will be topical and controversial reading for students and scholars of international relations and international political economy, as well as experts in foreign policy, peace and conflict studies.

Since the early weeks of the so-called Arab Spring, high hopes for democratic, social, and political change in the Middle East have been met with varying degrees of frustration. In the sub-region of the Levant, regional uprisings have turned to violent conflict in places such as Syria, Iraq, and the Gaza Strip. In Syria, popular unrest has caused enormous human suffering in one of the most brutal civil wars the region ever has witnessed, yet the international community has shown an appalling inability to act. Taking the war in Syria as its central point of reference, this book raises the question of whether the developments in the Levant might lead not only to processes of regime change, but also to a fundamental alteration of its entire state system.

How is one authentically" modern? Substantively drawing on contemporary social theory, this book investigates the multiplicity of answers that Muslims have given to this question since the end of the nineteenth century. Through six historical and thematic case studies the chapters examine the historical evolution of multiple modernities within Islam. The book argues that we can observe the rise and spread of a relatively hegemonic idea according to which the relation to Islamic traditions bestows projects of Muslim modernities with cultural authenticity. At the same time, it provides an interpretation of this specifically Islamic discourse of modernity as an inherent part of global modernity in conceptual terms understood as the emergence of world society.Key FeaturesInterprets modern Muslim history as an integral part of global modernityPresents a unique combination of social theory with Islamic studiesCritically revises Eisenstadt's concept of multiple modernitiesCombines two distinct concepts of world society with theories of social emergenceSix case studies give an account on the multiple modernities within IslamA theoretically informed fresh view on the construction of modern Muslim identitiesBased on more than 30 years of experience in Muslim countries"

Orientalism and Islamic Studies
Religion, Science, and Colonialism in Nineteenth Century Europe
AvDietrich Jung
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
According to simplistic textbook knowledge about Edward Said’s Orientalism, there was an intimate complicity between oriental studies and colonial domination. Since its first publication in 1978, the allegations of Orientalism, the sophisticated polemic of a learned academic and public intellectual from the United States, have become conventional wisdom about an entire scholarly field. In analyzing the origins and rise of the academic discipline of Islamic studies, this book challenges this fundamentally reductive and pejorative interpretation of European scholarship on Islam.Applying both macro- and micro level perspectives, the book investigates the complexities of the relationship between religion, science, and colonial politics in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In this way, it revisits and challenges the questionable truism of an almost complete alignment of Islamic studies with colonialism. Rather than a critique of Said’s polemic, this book puts on trial the trivialization of his work by investigating the emergence of Islamic studies as a modern academic discipline. Which role did European imperialism play in the making of this scholarly discipline? To what extent does the life and work of some of the founding fathers of Islamic studies resemble the stereotypes of Saidian orientalism? How did the social boundary negotiations between religion, science, and politics take place in the historical context of European colonialism? In answering these questions, the book provides a historical sociology of knowledge of Islamic Studies.

Orientalists, Islamists and the Global Public Sphere
A Genealogy of the Modern Essentialist Image of Islam
AvDietrich Jung
Inbunden, Engelska, 2011
1 211 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
In light of the ongoing public debate that focuses on differences between Islam and the West, this book suggests a change of perspective. It departs from the observation that both western Orientalists and Islamist activists have defined Islam similarly as an all-encompassing religious, political and social system. In shifting from differences to similarities, it leaves behind the increasingly circular debate about the true nature of Islam in which the Muslim religion has been represented either as intrinsically hostile to or as principally compatible with modern culture. Instead, it associates the evolution of a particularly essentialist image of Islam with a complex process of cross-cutting (self)-interpretations of Muslim and Western societies within an emerging global public sphere. Putting its focus on the life and work of a number of paradigmatic individuals, the book investigates the intellectual encounters and discursive interdependencies among western and Muslim intellectuals. In a historical genealogy it deconstructs the essentialist image of Islam in uncovering its conceptual foundations in the modern transformation of European and Muslim societies from the nineteenth century onwards. Thereby, the changing infrastructure of the global public sphere has facilitated the gradual popularization, trivialization, and dissemination of a previously elitist discourse on Islam and modernity. In this way, the idea of Islam as an all-encompassing system has been turned into accepted knowledge in the Western and Muslim worlds alike.

Turkey at the Crossroads
Ottoman Legacies and a Greater Middle East

Häftad, Engelska, 2001

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Turkey's future will be shaped fundamentally by the fate of its Kemalist legacy. A range of ideological currents today - Kurdish nationalists, Islamists, and so-called neo-Ottomanists - are all challenging the received, and still dominant, Kemalist version of the country's history. This book argues that Turkey cannot meet adequately the challenges and opportunities which its Middle East location offers (both its near neighbours and its more distant Turkic cousins in the newly independent states of Central Asia) so long as its ruling elite and its politically influential military continue to deny the significant continuities between the country's imperial Ottoman past and the Kemalist project of the 20th century.The authors examine Turkey's attempts at modernization, starting with the Ottomans' own reform attempts and accelerating with the Kemalist Republic and the country's growing orientation towards the West since 1945. They look at the challenge to Kemalism that Islamism and Kurdish nationalism have posed more recently. And they explore the difficulties and possibilities that Turkey faces in its hinterland - its Arab and Persian neighbours, Central Asia, and Israel. How it plays out its role as a regional actor will, they argue, be decided by the outcome of the profound ideological and political conflicts within the country. More particularly, Turkey cannot take modernization and democratization further until it faces up to the authoritarian legacy that Ottoman political culture passed on to the Turkish Republic.
Modern Subjectivities in World Society
Global Structures and Local Practices

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book brings together theories of world society with poststructuralist and postcolonial work on modern subjectivity to understand the universalising and particularising processes of globalisation. It addresses a theoretical void in global studies by attending to the co-constituted process through which modern subjectivities and global processes emerge and interact. The editors outline a key problem in global studies, which is a lack of engagement between the local/particular/individual and the ‘universalising’ processes in which they are situated. The volume deals with this concern with contributions from historical sociologists, poststructuralist and postcolonial scholars and by focusing in the Middle East, religion in global modernity and non-human subjectivities.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Since Edward Said’s publication of Orientalism in 1978, so-called Western social theory and its claim to universal analytical validity has been exposed to severe criticism. Scholars from the field of postcolonial studies were most vocal in criticizing the Eurocentric nature of the conceptual apparatus of the social sciences. Indeed, contemporary social theory almost exclusively refers to the historical experiences of Western Europe and North America. Yet what is the alternative to these Eurocentric frameworks? Many postcolonial critics use very few non-English sources and tend to focus on the deconstruction of European and American theories.The chapters of this volume provide a turn of perspective. The authors critically reflect upon the concepts of so-called Western social theory by engaging with social science literature and social theory in Arabic. Questions addressed include: What are the concepts, themes, and historical narratives in contemporary Arabic social theory? In which ways do Arab social theorists provide us with alternatives to the conceptual apparatuses employed by so-called Western social theory? To what extent are Arab and Western social theories entangled with each other?

Muslim History and Social Theory
A Global Sociology of Modernity
AvDietrich Jung
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book combines contemporary discussions on modernity with the history of the Muslim world. From a heuristic perspective, it is sketching out a framework for a global sociology of modernity. This framework attempts to accommodate a core assumption of classical modernization theory – the global nature of modernity – with the pluralistic perspective of the rise of a multiplicity of historically concrete forms of modernities. It tries to reconcile a universalistic concept of modernity with the fact of modernity’s multiple historical realizations. At the same time, this discussion of contemporary social theory puts forward a critique of the still so conveniently applied equation of modernization with Westernization. In empirical terms, the book substantiates this critique in drawing its exemplary illustrations from the historical experience of Muslim peoples. Bringing Muslim history and discussions in social theory together, this book represents a synthesis of research efforts in sociology and Islamic studies.

Das Ende des Ost-West-Konfliktes und die Ereignisse nach dem 11. September 2001 haben zu einer Flut von Literatur über "neue" oder "postmoderne" Kriege geführt. Die Autoren dieses Bandes sehen dagegen keinen radikalen Wandel im weltweiten Kriegsgeschehen. Nicht die Kriege und ihre Ursachen, sondern deren Interpretation ist neu. Die sich wandelnden Erscheinungsformen der Kriege folgen vielmehr langfristigen Entwicklungstendenzen. Sie sind Ausdruck der widersprüchlichen Entwicklungen der kapitalistischen Moderne. Ziel der Autoren ist es, die weit über 200 Kriege des Zeitraums zwischen 1945 und 2002 sowohl in ihrem globalen Zusammenhang zu erklären als auch die Besonderheiten regionaler Kriegsentwicklungen in Afrika, Asien, Lateinamerika, dem Nahem Osten und Europa herauszuarbeiten. Ihre kenntnisreiche Darstellung des Kriegsgeschehens ist eingebettet in einen umfassenden gesellschaftstheoretischen Erklärungsrahmen, der den Formwandel der Gewalt aus der historischen Entwicklung der bürgerlichen Gesellschaft zur Weltgesellschaft erklärt. Damit leistet der Band eine theoretisch geleitete, historisch fundierte und empirisch gehaltvolle Darstellung des Kriegsgeschehens seit 1945, wie sie in der deutschsprachigen Literatur so bisher nicht vorlag.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Dieses Buch vereint soziologische Theoriebildung mit Studien zum Nahen Osten und zum Islam. Die Vielfalt von Modernitäten, die in unsere Welt beobachtet werden kann, wird dabei mit dem Anspruch verbunden, gleichzeitig in einer globalen Moderne, in einer Weltgesellschaft zu leben. Das Buch untermauert diesen Anspruch mit zahlreichen Exkursen in die islamische Geschichte. Es kritisiert die Auffassung, dass Modernisierung mit Verwestlichung gleichzusetzen wäre und betrachtet unterschiedliche Projekte von spezifisch islamischen Modernitäten als integrale Teile der Weltgesellschaft. Aus dieser Perspektive leistet die Studie einen Beitrag zur „Provinzialisierung“ der europäischen Geschichte im zeitgenössischen sozialwissenschaftlichen Denken. Entgegen den mit der Aufforderung zur Provinzialisierung Europas verbundenen Theorien des Postkolonialismus hält dieses Buch aber an wesentlichen Traditionen der klassischen Soziologie fest. Es will damit einen Beitrag zur sozialtheoretischen Diskussion um die Moderne leisten, der empirisch mit Hilfe von Daten aus der Geschichte des Nahen Ostens und des Islams untermauert wird.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book combines sociological theorising with studies on the Middle East and Islam. The diversity of modernities that can be observed in our world is linked to the claim of living in a global modernity, in a world society. The book underpins this claim with numerous excursions into Islamic history. It criticises the view that modernisation can be equated with westernisation and considers different projects of specifically Islamic modernities as integral parts of world society. From this perspective, the study contributes to the "provincialisation" of European history in contemporary social scientific thought. Contrary to the theories of postcolonialism associated with the call for the provincialisation of Europe, however, this book adheres to essential traditions of classical sociology. It thus aims to make a contribution to the social theoretical discussion on modernity, which is empirically underpinned with the help of data from the history of the Middle East and Islam.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
