Trust and the Islamic Advantage

Religious-Based Movements in Turkey and the Muslim World

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book will interest scholars and students of comparative politics, Middle East politics, religion, and collective action. Examining the rise of Islamic-based politics and economics, Livny argues that these movements have a comparative advantage because they inspire feelings of trust among individuals with a shared, religious group-identity.
