What Went Wrong? The Clash Between Islam & Modernity In The Middle East by Bernard Lewis
The Clash Between Islam and Modernity in the Middle East
The book explores the historical and cultural factors that have contributed to the tensions between the Islamic world and modern Western society. It delves into the decline of the Islamic world from its once-dominant position in global affairs, examining the impact of colonialism, internal strife, and resistance to modernization. The author analyzes how these elements have led to a complex relationship with modernity, characterized by both resistance and adaptation, and discusses the implications for the future of the Middle East and its interactions with the rest of the world.
