Zusammenfassung

Following the ideological disappointment of the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, an Islamic revival arose in Egypt. Here, Rock-Singer looks beyond the artificial divide between state institutions and Islamic activists and melds social and intellectual history to show how Egypt's Islamic revival emerged, who it involved, and why it still shapes Egypt today.
