This 3-volume reference work tracks the history of the Caliphate as what many Muslims believe to be a genuine and authentic Islamic political institution: from its emergence in 7th-century Arabia until highly contested and controversial attempts at its revival at the beginning of the 21st-century by radical Islamists in Afghanistan and Iraq.


Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references.; Although the Caliphate was formally abolished 90 years ago, it had already ceased to exist as a unitary and effectively administered political institution many centuries earlier. The ever widening gap between political ideal and historical reality is also reflected in the varying conceptualizations and theories of the Caliphate developed by Islamic religious scholars and Muslim intellectuals past and present. However, recent events in the Islamic world show that the idea of a Caliphate still appeals to Muslims of varying persuasions.
