Description
The seminar will critically reflect on key trends in the Marxist analysis of Islam as a religion, and of Islamism as an ideological current which aims to make state or society more "Islamic" as a method for solving social and political problems, arguing against approaches premised on the idea that Islam has an unchanging, timeless essence which can explain either the role of a highly diverse set of social movements or guide revolutionary socialists in how to relate to them.
