Vanguard of the Islamic Revolution: The Jama|At-I Islami of Pakistan
Seyyed Vali Reza Nasr
Examines the origins, historical development, & political strategies of one of the oldest & most influential Islamic revival movements. Founded in 1941, the Islamic Party soon became the most prominent political party in Pakistan. It became active during the partition of India & it continues to be a potent force in Pakistan & throughout the Islamic world. Focuses on the inherent tension between its central idealized vision of the nation as a holy community based on Islamic law, & its political agenda of socioeconomic change for Pakistani society. Identifies the significant issues in the politics of India s Muslim community that inspired the party on the eve of Partition.
