Aims to make Islamic political thought easier to understand, by relating it to the contexts in which it was formulated, and comparing it with medieval European and modern thought. This book brings out the fascinating nature of medieval Islamic political thought, both in its own right and as the background to political thinking in the Muslim world." - publisher.
