Roy demonstrates that the Islamic Fundamentalism of today is still the Third Worldism of the 1960s: populist politics and mixed economies of laissez-faire for the rich and subsidies for the poor. In Roy’s formulation, those marching today beneath Islam’s green banners are the same as the “reds” of yesterday, with similarly dim prospects of success.
