In this essay, Abdelwahab Meddeb analyzes the history of Islamic movements, arguing that fundamentalism is the disease of Islam, similar to fanaticism in Catholicism and Nazism in Germany. The author examines the medieval Arab glory, its stagnation, and current decline, noting that fundamentalism combines the desire to return to the archaic with the use of Western technologies. This book offers a critical and scholarly perspective on the evolution of Islam and its contemporary challenges.
Abdelwahab Meddeb was a French-language writer and cultural critic, and a professor of comparative literature at the University of Paris X-Nanterre.
