14 July 2016The relationship between religion and politics is a bone of political contention and a source of deep confusion across the Islam-West divide. When most Western liberals cast their gaze on Muslim societies today, what they see is deeply disconcerting.

This article examines the relationship between religion and political legitimacy in the context of the contemporary Muslim Middle East. Specifically, it seeks to provide a broad historical answer to the question: why at the start of the 21st century is religion a powerful source of political legitimacy in Muslim societies while in the West, by and large today, it is a source of disagreement and hence illegitimacy?
