The book delves into the complexities of political Islam, challenging the notion that it solely represents a threat to the West. Through interviews with key Islamist figures across various cities, the author explores how these movements seek to reclaim a culture affected by colonization while also advocating for democracy and tolerance. Topics such as the intersection of Islam and modernity, the role of women in Islamism, and the discourse on violence are examined, providing a nuanced perspective on a pivotal aspect of contemporary international relations.

Looks at how the rise of political Islam has been expressed: first in the Arab world, then in its interactions with French and Western societies, and finally in its interactions with other European and Western societies. -- .
