His latest book, Why Do People Hate America?, has been a regular feature in bestseller lists in several countries. In the UK, he is known as a leading intellectual and his regular contributions to the Observer, the Independent and the New Statesman have brought his writings to a wide audience. As one of our most high-profile Muslim intellectuals, he has also become an increasingly important voice in the media since the events of September 11th 2001. This is the first collection of his writings that offers a comprehensive introduction to his thought. Starting with his analysis of his own position as a British Muslim and a writer, it goes on to explore issues of Islam and cultural change, education, identity, post-modernism and the future. Drawn from a broad range of his work in scholarly journals as well as from his many books on aspects of culture and society, it includes his most frequently cited papers and makes an ideal introduction to the immense scope of his work in cultural studies.Ziaddin Sardar is currently the editor of Third Text and Visiting Professor of Cultural Studies at City University, London. His books for Pluto Press include Postmodernism and the Other and Aliens R Us. 606 $aIslam$y20th century 606 $aPostmodernism$xReligious aspects$xIslam 606 $aIslamic renewal 606 $aIslamic civilization 615 0$aIslam 615 0$aPostmodernism$xReligious aspects$xIslam. 615 0$aIslamic renewal. 615 0$aIslamic civilization. 676 $a297/.09/04 700 $aSardar$b Ziauddin$0560337 701 $aInayatullah$b Sohail$f1958-$0281693 701 $aBoxwell$b Gail$01648199 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816461803321 996 $aIslam, postmodernism, and other futures$93996203 997 $aUNINA
