Governing Islam and Violent Radicalization explores the links between the governance of religious diversity and violent radicalization.Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship and case studies from both Muslim-majority and Muslim-minority settings, as well as case-studies centering transnational and non-state actors, this volume problematizes the often-simplistic portrayal of Islam as a unitary concept and explores the religious market of ideas where different religious groups, including governmental religious institutions, are seeking to preach their ideas. By bridging previously disconnected strands of research on religion governance and counter-radicalization, this book offers a nuanced analysis of the complex entanglements between Islam, state power, and violence.The volume will be of interest to scholars and students of political science, religious studies, security studies, Middle Eastern studies, South-East Asian studies and European studies, as well as policymakers working in counter-terrorism, counter-radicalization, and religious governance. It will also appeal to general readers interested in the intersection of Islam, state power, and radicalization.
