Islam and Statecraft

Religious Soft Power in the Arab Gulf States

Beschreibung

"Here, Jon Hoffman analyzes the differing ways in which political considerations impact how religion is marshaled as a tool of foreign policy in the Middle East. Instead of religion influencing political outcomes, this analysis examines how politics influences religious outcomes. This book develops a comprehensive analytical framework for the notion of "religious soft power" capable of incorporating power-based, identity-based, and ideational variables to examine how states couple religion with their broader foreign policy conduct"--
