Islamism and Globalisation in Jordan

- The Muslim Brotherhood's Quest for Hegemony

Om Islamism and Globalisation in Jordan

This book explores the activities of the local Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan. It examines how the Brotherhood, working to establish an alternative social, political and moral order through networks of Islamic institutions, made a huge contribution to the transformation of Jordanian society. It reveals, however, that the Brotherhood has also engaged with neo-liberal approaches to the economy, adopting a "hybridisation" of Islamism which is a collection of historically constructed practices, rather than an abstract set of beliefs. The book also illustrates how globalisation is profoundly influencing culture and society in the Arab world, though modified by the adoption of an Islamic framework.
