商品簡介
Mostly German scholars outline similarities and differences in the understanding, perception, and communication of basic politico-ideological issues like modernity, democracy, violence, the emancipation of women, human rights, economic development and social justice. Then they focus on particular countries or groups to examine their relations with Europe and the US, among them Algeria, Iran, Egypt and Morocco, Turkey, Bosnia, Israel and the Palestinians, Iraq, central Asia and the Caucasus, and Pakistan. The anthology of 16 essays was originally published as Der Islam und der Westen: Anstiftung zum dialog in 1997 by Fischer Taschenbuch Verlag, Franfurt an Main. Annotation c.
