Contesting the Saudi State: Islamic Voices from a New Generation - Cambridge Middle East Studies
Al-Rasheed, Madawi (University of London)
In Saudi Arabia there are now open debates about religion and politics, often in violation of official taboos. Madawi Al-Rasheed explores this phenomenon, and how, in consequence and with the rise of multiple interpretations of religious texts, the traditional Wahhabi discourse is losing its hold on the new generation.
