520 # # |a Murden (strategic studies and international affairs, Britannia Royal Naval College) examines how the "remorseless march of the globalized Western hegemony" is changing Muslim politics and culture and how Muslim peoples are reacting to it. After critically examining the West's cultural discourse about Islam, he discusses the way that U.S. projects military power in the Middle East and looks at varying responses by Muslim states and Islamic activists. Islamic engagement with the global economic order is also explored. The tensions between Islamists and authoritarian secular states is examined with special attention paid to the democratization attempts taking place in Iran. Finally, the possibilities for the Islamic countries to push counterhegemonic plans is negatively evaluated. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
