Author Dissects Middle East's Turko-Persian Future in Article
Mohammed Ayoob, author of The Many Faces of Political Islam: Religion and Politics in the Muslim World, continues to enlighten readers of the Middle East's political changes in an article published by Foreign Policy, in which the distinguished University professor argues that the "Middle East seems to be inexorably heading toward a Turko-Persian future."
In his book Faces of Political Islam, Ayoob offers a lucid, comprehensive examination of the true relationship between Islam and global politics. Analysts and pundits from across the American political spectrum describe Islamic fundamentalism as one of the greatest threats to modern, Western-style democracy. Yet very few non-Muslims would be able to venture an accurate definition of political Islam. Ayoob thoroughly describes the myriad manifestations of this rising ideology and analyzes its impact on global relations.
