This book provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary exploration of civility and political culture in the Muslim world.

The contributions consider the changing interface between religion and politics throughout Islamic history, and into the present. Extending beyond saturated approaches of 'political' and/or 'militant' Islam, this collection captures the complex sociopolitical character of Islam, and identifies tensions between the political-secular and the sacred-religious in contemporary Muslim life. 

The alternative conceptual framework to traditional analyses of secularisation and civility presented across this volume will be of interest to students and scholars across Islamic studies, religious studies, sociology and political science, civilisation studies, and cultural studies. 

Milad Milani is Senior Lecturer in Religious Studies at Western Sydney University, Australia. 
Vassilios Adrahtas is Honorary Research Fellow at Macquarie University, Australia.
