    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Globalization, modernity and identity are fundamental issues in contemporary Islam and Islamic Studies. This collection of essays reflects the wide diversity that characterises contemporary Islamic Studies. The case studies cover regions stretching from China and Southeast Asia to diaspora communities in the Caribbean and Tajikistan. There is significant participation of intellectual voices from all areas concerned, providing a real contribution to the academic exchange between the Muslim and the Euro-American worlds.

    'The book will draw the attention of specialists students of Islamic Studies, social sciences, and the humanities as well as the general educated public interested in subjects so diverse as development, modernization, globalization, intercultural contacts, intellectual discourse, gender, religious education, or religious authority.' - IIAS Newsletter 2002, Kuang Mei

    'On the whole, this book provides an interesting insight into the diverse ways in which Muslim communities in different parts of the world are reacting to the challenges of Globalization.' - Noor Muhammad, The Muslim World Book Review


    'It would make a valuable addition to academic libraries seving Islamic studies.' - Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations
