| Description: |
Providing a variety of perspectives, Islamic Education, Diversity and National Identity: Dini Madaris in India Post 9/11 addresses a number of important questions from various angles. The 12 original essays of this volume discuss the phenomenon of dini madaris from a historical perspective, regional perspective, and examine current developments while drawing insights mainly from recently conducted fieldwork. The contributors discuss crucial issues like gender and the role of the media. The volume concludes that dini madaris, contrary to their public image, are not essentially opposed to change, even though the framework for change appears to be limited. |
| Synopsis: |
In the aftermath of the 9/11 attack in the United States and the consequent declaration of the global `war on terrorism', madrasa education has received unprecedented attention. The intensified debates on the role of Muslim educational institutions - the dini madaris - revolve primarily around the following questions: Is there a link between madaris and violence, anti-national activities, or terrorism? How transparent is the funding and patronage structure of these Islamic educational networks?What are the political implications of their educational system? In answering these questions, the 12 original essays in this volume offer a survey on the phenomenon of madrasa education in India. |
