Shari'a in Saudi Arabia, today and tomorrow Stephen Schwartz Shari'a law in Iran Mehrangiz Kar ; translated by Kavian Milani Shari'a in Pakistan Maarten G. Barends Shari'a in Sudan Hamouda Bella Nigeria : shari'a in a fragmented country Paul Marshall Islamization and partial shari'a in Malaysia Peter G. Riddell Islamisation and creeping shari'a in Indonesia Peter G. Riddell Democracy and Islam in the new constitution of Afghanistan Rand Corporation.
A 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, show its threat to the status of women, religious freedom, and democracy itself, and suggest how we should respond.
