The internationally renowned, established and emerging scholars in the edited volume are specialists of secularism, democratization, gender rights and Islam. In particular, Amina Wadud, Nadir Hashimi and Pippa Norris are internationally renowned scholars on Islamic hermeneutics, Muslim societies and secularism. The other chapters extend the analytical and conceptual boundaries by their integrated ‚rethinking‘ of Islam, secularism, democracy and constitutionalismThe chapters adopt methodologies that are both quantitative and qualitative an approach not employed in most edited volumes on Islam, the state and secularism. The chapters are purposefully open-ended, nuanced and critical but also driven by the spirit of optimism for the future of the Muslim WorldThe ongoing political developments associated with the ‚Arab Spring‘, popular support for the building of Muslim secular democratic states and the rising prominence of Islamic feminists and ‚moderate‘ Islamist political parties and movements across the Muslim World renders the book highly topical and marketable for the academic and non-academic audience. It will also be of considerable interest to policy-makersThe book will be used as a recommended text for Lily Zubaidah Rahim’s undergraduate course on reformist Islam (150-160 students, unit offered each year) at the University of Sydney. The book will suit a publisher with the organization and commitment to promote this publication internationally
