The Transformation of Politicised Religion: From Zealots into LeadersIncluding the contributions of leading scholars from Algeria, France, Germany, India and the United States, this book traces the rise and turn to moderation of the New Cultural Identitarian Political Movements, often labelled in the West as fundamentalists. The Transformation of Politicised Religion traces the rise of these movements to the changes in their respective countries’ political economy and class structures, explaining why, as a result of an ongoing contestation and recreation of bourgeois values, the more powerful of these movements tend towards moderation.
