This clear and balanced book focuses ion the regional factors that encourage the development of fundamentalist movements and on the local to international consequences of the rise of such movements. Developing a genuinely global perspective, he author's cases include Hindu militants. Christian conservatives, Afghanistan's Taliban, and ultra-Orthodox Jews and how they battle to control nor only sacred but secular space as well. As a comprehensive assessment of the many expressions of fundamentalism, this work should be of interest to anyone seeking to understand the causes and effects of fundamentalist movements and how they vary among different regions of the world.
