Zusammenfassung

A new history of Asia and Islam from the seventh century to today, approached as an interconnected space of encounters and interactions. Challenging the assumed dominance of the Middle East in the development of Islam, Formichi argues for Asia's centrality in the development of global Islam as a religious, social and political reality.
