VersandkostenfreiA major feature of the rise of Islamism in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and parts of the West is the current rapid growth of a starkly repressive version of shari'a, Islamic law. In this book, noted human rights activists and scholars trace the growth of such law in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Sudan, Nigeria, Malaysia, and Indonesia; document its threat to the status of women, religious freedom, and democracy itself; and suggest how the rest of the world should respond. Published in cooperation with Freedom House's Center for Religious Freedom.

Pressestimmen
That theocracies do exist-and must be resisted by U.S. foreign policy-is ably demonstrated in the anthology Radical Islam's Rules: The Worldwide Spread of Extreme Shari'a Law. Edited by Paul Marshall, a senior fellow at Freedom House's Center for Religious Freedom, the book includes ten essays describing how radical Muslims-including the Wahhabists of Saudi Arabia-have fostered the rise of religion-based oppression worldwide. National Review Deeply sobering essays by human-rights experts and students of Islam. Foreign Affairs In an anthology produced by the Freedom House's Center for Religious Freedom, human rights professionals, scholars, and journalists outline the nature and spread of 'shari'a' law, using seven countries to represent the geographical spread and stages of its effects.
