It contributes to the growing interest in the vital question of Muslim attitudes towards violence. Editors blurb: This volume offers the first hitherto available overview of the role of public violence in the history of Muslim societies. Islam is often perceived as a civilization breeding violence toward the outside. To counter such negative stereotypes, the approach of this volume is to stress the nature of violence as a means of political dominion. The volume demonstrates the diversity of attitudes toward violence within Muslim societies and thus helps to overcome essentialist assumptions about Islamic violence. 606 $aViolence$zIslamic countries 606 $aViolence$zIslamic countries$xPublic opinion 606 $aPublic opinion$zIslamic countries 606 $aMuslims$xSocial conditions 606 $aIslam and social problems 607 $aIslamic countries$xSocial conditions 615 0$aViolence 615 0$aViolence$xPublic opinion. 615 0$aPublic opinion 615 0$aMuslims$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aIslam and social problems. 676 $a306.6091767 686 $aBE 8660$qSEPA$2rvk 701 $aLange$b Christian Robert$f1975-$01787386 701 $aFierro$b Ma.
