Description: The fate of the Islamist activists and resistance groups who leave their origins for electoral politics
Brief description: Dr. Sarah Marusek is a Research Fellow at the University of Leeds. She is the author of Faith and Resistance (Pluto, 2018) and co-author of a series of Spinwatch reports on the overlapping funders of the transatlantic Islamophobia network, neoconservative movement and Israeli settlements.
Review Quotes: 'Faith and Resistance is a brilliant, erudite and welcome addition to the growing body of work on Islamic Liberation Theology and Decoloniality. Marusek compels the reader to transcend the limitations and pretension of a 'universalistic' Western secular modernity to explore counter-hegemonic modes of resistance that center their values around Islam, faith and a commitment to justice' Farid Esack, Professor
