Ali Shariati and the Future of Social Theory
In Ali Shariati and the Future of Social Theory: Religion, Revolution and the Role of the Intellectual, Dustin J. Byrd and Seyed Javad Miri bring together a collections of essays by a variety of scholars who explore the lasting influence of the Iranian sociologist and revolutionary, Ali Shariati. Thought to be the most important intellectual behind the Iranian Revolution of 1979, these essays engage in a future-oriented remembrance of Shariati’s life and praxis, with the practical attempt to clarify, expand, and apply his liberational Islamic thought to modern conditions. Making use of Shariati’s writings on Shi’a Islam and western philosophy, this text is especially important for those who want to understand the role that intellectuals, both religious and secular, can have in the liberation of mankind. Contributors are: Mahdi Ahouie, Bader Mousa al-Saif, Sophia Rose Arjana, M. Kürad Atalar, Dustin J. Byrd, Eric Goodfield, Teo Lee Ken, Georg Leube, Seyed Javad Miri, Carimo Mohomed, Chandra Muzaffar, Khosrow Bagheri Noaparast, Fatemeh Shayan, and Esmaeil Zeiny.
Studying the Qur'ān in the Muslim Academy
Studying the Qur'an in the Muslim Academy examines what it is like to study and teach the Qur'an at academic institutions in the Muslim world, and how politics affect scholarly interpretations of the text. Guided by the author's own journey as a student, university lecturer, and researcher in Iran, Malaysia, and New Zealand, this book provides vivid accounts of the complex academic politics he encountered. Majid Daneshgar describes the selective translation and editing of Edward Said's classic work Orientalism into various Islamic languages, and the way Said's work is weaponized to question the credibility of contemporary Western-produced scholarship in Islamic studies. Daneshgar also examines networks of journals, research centers, and universities in both Sunni and Shia contexts, and looks at examples of Quranic interpretation there. Ultimately, he offers a constructive program for enriching Islamic studies by fusing the best of Western theories with the best philological practices developed in Muslim academic contexts, aimed at encouraging respectful but critical engagement with the Qur'an.

Muda & Derhaka
Mengapa kita perlu menerima segala keputusan yang berlegar dalam ruang sosial tanpa menggugat atau sekurang-kurangnya menyemak relevansinya? Adakah kita kekurangan karangan-karangan yang mencerahkan dan menguak minda masyarakat ataukah kita sudah menjadi lemah, layu dan longlai akibat dibelasah teruk oleh wacana hegemoni yang mendominan? Naskhah ini tidak bertugas untuk menjawab persoalan-persoalan ini dengan kemas dan mapan, namun berperanan untuk membangkitkan pertanyaan-pertanyaan penting yang terpencil dan digelapkan. Mengungkit-ungkit permasalahan setempat dan memikir-ulang peranan orang muda dalam berhadapan dengan "tirani baru" yang boleh berbentuk wacana kekuasaan, agama dan budaya. Ketidakberesan ini cuba digembar-gemburkan dan berharap agar masyarakat mula terlibat dalam misi pemberdayaan dan mencerahkan masyarakat. Kritik sosial dan sanggahan-sanggahan yang tersedia dalam naskhah ini menuntut kritik balas dan gugatan yang lebih kemas. Ini fungsi wacana yang perlu dihidupkan semula. Dan, inilah peranan orang muda. Sekalipun masyarakat menghukumnya derhaka.

The Struggle of the Shi‘is in Indonesia
The Struggle of the Shi‘is in Indonesia is a pioneering work. It is the first comprehensive scholarly examination in English of the development of Shiism in Indonesia. It focuses primarily on the important period between 1979 and 2004 – a period of nearly a quarter of a century that saw the notable dissemination of Shi’i ideas and a considerable expansion of the number of Shi’i adherents in Indonesia. Since Islam in Indonesia is overwhelmingly Sunni, this development of Shiism in a predominantly Sunni context is a remarkable phenomenon that calls for careful, critical investigation. There is also an important examination of the principal ideas underlying the Madhab Ahl al-Bayt, the I...
