Islam, Secularism, and Liberal Democracy analyzes the theoretical relationship
between religion and democracy, specifically Islam’s relationship
with liberal democracy. It discusses the relationship between Islam,
Muslim-majority societies (viz., Iran, Turkey, and Indonesia), and liberal
democracy in a way that advances theory and practice regarding their relations

followed by a conclusion, endnotes, a bibliography, and an index ...
