Descripción
Sumario:"This edited volume offers a collection of papers that presents a comparative analysis of the development of Shari'a in countries with Muslim minorities, such as America, Australia, China, Germany, Italy, Singapore, South Africa, and the Philippines, as well as countries with Muslim majorities, such as Malaysia, Bangladesh, Turkey, and Tunisia. It provides a global analysis of these important legal transformations and examines the topic from a sociological perspective. In addition, the third part of the book includes case studies that explore some applications of theoretical perspectives such as those from Chambliss and Eisenstadt"--Publisher's description.
