The Islamic Leviathan: Islam and the making of State Power - Religion and Global Politics
Nasr, Seyyed Vali Reza (Associate Professor of Political Science, Associate Professor of Political Science, University of San Diego)
Vali Nasr argues that the state itself plays a key role in embedding Islam in the politics of Muslim countries. The turn to Islam, argues Nasr, is a facet of the state's drive to establish hegemony over society and expand its power and control. He focuses on the cases of Malaysia and Pakistan to demonstrate his thesis.
