Anouar Majid argues that the Islamic world and the United States are both in precipitous states of decline because, in each, religious, political, and economic orthodoxies have silenced the voices of their most creative thinkers. The solution, Majid argues, is a long-overdue revival of dissent.Islamic civilization21st centuryEast and WestIslamic countriesRelationsUnited StatesUnited StatesCivilization21st centuryUnited StatesRelationsIslamic countriesIslamic civilizationEast and West.909.09767Majid Anouar1960-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911142646803321UNINA
