| Unit Description |
This unit attempts to explain the dramatic resurgence and re-assertion of Islamic culture in recent times, focusing on West Asia and the Middle East. Particular emphasis will be placed on the aggressive and seemingly sudden re-orientation of a number of Asian and Arab states along so-called 'fundamentalist' lines.
