Islam, Authoritarianism, And Underdevelopment by Ahmet T. Kuru
A Historical and Comparative Study
This insightful work delves into the complex relationship between Islam, political authoritarianism, and economic underdevelopment in the Muslim world. It challenges the conventional wisdom that attributes these issues solely to religious doctrines, instead highlighting the historical and socio-political factors that have shaped the current landscape. By examining the interplay between religious institutions, state power, and economic structures, the book offers a nuanced analysis of how historical legacies and contemporary dynamics have contributed to the persistence of authoritarian regimes and hindered economic progress in many Muslim-majority countries.
