Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En dépit de sa présence déterminante sur la longue durée, l’islam en Afrique a encore du mal à se départir d’une image de « religion importée » et « bricolée » face à un monde musulman arabophone. Si cette présence au sud du Sahara n’a nullement été linéaire et s’inscrit au contraire dans des effets de replis et de reprises successifs, le puissant mouvement de réislamisation, qui s’amorce à la fin du XVIIIe siècle pour s’accélérer dans les dernières décennies du XXe siècle, ne permet plus de faire l’économie de la dynamique sociale et politique du religieux pour comprendre l’Afrique actuelle et, singulièrement, de la place qu’y occupe l’islam. Au fil d’un parcours à travers cinq pays de l’Afrique de l’Ouest,le Burkina Faso, la Côte d’Ivoire, le Mali, le Niger et le Sénégal, cet ouvrage souligne combien l’Afrique musulmane est inscrite dans la modernité et participe de ce que l’on peut appeler la globalisation islamique. Mais plus encore qu’une active présence au monde, l’Afrique d’aujourd’hui donne à voir des pratiques politiques et sociales originales qui puisent massivement dans la ressource religieuse, cherchant ainsi à pallier la faillite morale, politique et économique des États. Décrivant et analysant les configurations des expériences démocratiques en cours, le phénomène d’assimilation réciproque des sphères politique et religieuse, et le degré d’organisation des acteurs islamiques au sein des sociétés civiles, cet ouvrage pose en final la question de l’émergence d’un nouveau type de rapports entre l’État et la société, que l’on peut qualifier d’« espace public religieux ».

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de la décennie et demie qui a suivi la fin de la Guerre froide, l'Afrique a connu des changements considérables qui ont également influencé les sociétés musulmanes et la pratique de l'islam à un degré dont la mesure n'a peut-être pas encore été totalement prise. C'est à ce phénomène que s'intéresse ce livre, dont les auteurs tentent d'explorer les dynamiques croisées de l'islam, de la société et de l'Etat en Afrique subsaharienne. Ils espèrent combler partiellement certaines lacunes de notre compréhension de l'Afrique contemporaine et incitent à remettre en question beaucoup d'idées reçues, sinon de préjugés concernant l'islam et les sociétés musulmanes en Afrique et ailleurs dans le monde. Se concentrant sur les récents défis et situations difficiles que les Africains et les musulmans africains, en particulier, ont rencontrés, l'ouvrage s'interroge sur la façon dont la pratique de l'islam est en train de se recomposer, notamment après le 11 septembre 2001, dans un monde en voie de globalisation. Il privilégie une acception assez large de la notion de politique, englobant la politique formelle des partis politiques, des élections et du gouvernement, aussi bien que la politique du quotidien, a d'en bas ". Sont donc pris en compte les arènes formelles et informelles de l'action politique, les nouveaux espaces et opportunités de débat dans l'espace public qui s'est élargi considérablement depuis les années 1990. Cet ouvrage met également au premier plan les interconnexions complexes et changeantes entre l'Afrique et le reste du monde, qui ont influencé le rapport à la politique en Afrique. Il met en scène des musulmans impliqués de différentes façons dans le débat politique : politiciens, fonctionnaires, jeunes activistes, étudiants, lettrés, prédicateurs et fournisseurs de services sociaux, etc. Ce sont ces acteurs qui font " l'islam mondain " compris comme l'islam dans le monde actuel ou dans des sociétés séculières contemporaines.

Book excerpt: L'Afrique connaît depuis quelques années une effervescence religieuse porteuse de changement social et politique. L'Islam n'échappe pas à ce phénomène. On assiste en Afrique à de nouvelles formes d'islamisation. Celles-ci composent un nouveau paysage islamique qui articule les communautés musulmanes locales à l'umma globale et met en scène de nouveaux acteurs religieux. Ces mutations secouent l'ordre islamique ancien et sont de nature à modifier notre vision traditionnelle de l'" islam noir " qui apparaît plutôt aujourd'hui comme un " Islam branché ", en prise sur les dynamiques sociopolitiques locales mais aussi sur le temps mondial. A partir d'études monographiques portant sur huit pays africains (Mauritanie, Soudan, Sénégal, Guinée-Bissau, Niger, Cameroun, Mozambique, Afrique du sud), le thème propose un voyage dans ce nouvel islam africain et met l'accent sur les effets politiques de ces transformations du champ religieux.

Book excerpt: L'Afrique noire, au cours de ces dernières décennies, est marquée par la montée en puissance de nouvelles organisations religieuses qui investissent parfois des pans entiers du secteur public et du champ politique. Ces nouvelles structures sont animées par les nouveaux oulémas, formés dans les universités ou instituts islamiques, engagés à promouvoir le renouveau islamique au coeur de la société dites moderne. La Centrafrique, pays laïc, à majorité chrétienne et géographiquement enclavée, est au coeur de cette dynamique religieuse.

Book excerpt: "Ce premier numéro d'islam & Sociétés au sud du Sahara est une série refondée par un groupe d'anthropologues, d'historiens et de spécialistes du fait religieux. L'islam subsaharien est méconnu. Pourtant, un Africain sur trois vivant au sud du Sahara est musulman, soit 160 millions de personnes - plus que le Pakistan et un peu moins que l'Indonésie. Si l'islam est présent en Afrique depuis plus d'un millénaire, de nouveaux espaces émergent désormais dans une économie globalisée, de l'Europe. 'Nouveaux espaces' est à entendre ici au sens large, aussi bien géographique, avec un article sur la Congo-Kinshasa (RDC) et un autre sur l'Afrique du Sud - deux pays où l'islam est souvent passé sous silence - que thématique, avec des contributions sur les ONG islamiques au Mali et la réévaluation des confréries au Sénégal. L'Afrique, immense continent aussi divers que peuvent l'être l'Europe et l'Asie, est aujourd'hui le lieu d'intenses recompositions religieuses, où l'islam joue un rôle majeur."--Book cover.

This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To what extent can Islam be localized in an increasingly interconnected world? The contributions to this volume investigate different facets of Muslim lives in the context of increasingly dense transregional connections, highlighting how the circulation of ideas about ‘Muslimness’ contributed to the shaping of specific ideas about what constitutes Islam and its role in society and politics. Infrastructural changes have prompted the intensification of scholarly and trade networks, prompted the circulation of new literary genres or shaped stereotypical images of Muslims. This, in turn, had consequences in widely differing fields such as self-representation and governance of Muslims. The contributions in this volume explore this issue in geographical contexts ranging from South Asia to Europe and the US. Coming from the disciplines of history, anthropology, religious studies, literary studies and political science, the authors collectively demonstrate the need to combine a translocal perspective with very specific local and historical constellations. The book complicates conventional academic divisions and invites to think in historically specific translocal contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume on Muslim life focuses on young male migrants of rural origin who move to build better lives in Bougouni, a provincial town in southwest Mali. Describing themselves as “simply Muslims” and “adventurers,” these migrants aim to be both prosperous and good Muslims. Drawing upon seventeen months of fieldwork, author André Chappatte explores their sense of prosperity and piety as they embark on tunga (adventure), a customary search for money and more in a tradition that dates back to the colonial period. In the context of the current global war on terrorism, most studies of Muslim life have focused on the politics of piety of reformist movements, their leaders, and members. By contrast, In Search of “Tunga” takes a perspective from below. It opens piety up to “simply Muslims,” although the religious elites have always claimed authority and legitimacy over piety. Is piety an exclusive field of experiences for those who claim to strive for it? What does piety involve for the majority of Muslims, the non-elite and unaffiliated Muslims? This volume “democratizes” piety by documenting its practice as going beyond sharply defined religious affiliations and Islamic scholarship, and by showing it is both alive and normative, existential and prescriptive. As opposed to studies that build on the classic historical connections between the Maghreb and the Sahel, the southbound migration from the Sahel documented in this book stresses the overlooked historical connections between the southern shores of the Sahara and the lands south of those shores. It demonstrates how the Malian savanna, this former buffer-zone between ancient Mande kingdoms and thereafter remote areas of French Sudan, is increasingly becoming central in today’s Sahel contexts of desiccation and insecurity.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, anthropologists, historians, and others have been drawn to study the profuse and creative usages of digital media by religious movements. At the same time, scholars of Christian Africa have long been concerned with the history of textual culture, the politics of Bible translation, and the status of the vernacular in Christianity. Students of Islam in Africa have similarly examined politics of knowledge, the transmission of learning in written form, and the influence of new media. Until now, however, these arenas—Christianity and Islam, digital media and “old” media—have been studied separately. Religion, Media, and Marginality in Modern Africa is one of the first volumes to put new media and old media into significant conversation with one another, and also offers a rare comparison between Christianity and Islam in Africa. The contributors find many previously unacknowledged correspondences among different media and between the two faiths. In the process they challenge the technological determinism—the notion that certain types of media generate particular forms of religious expression—that haunts many studies. In evaluating how media usage and religious commitment intersect in the social, cultural, and political landscapes of modern Africa, this collection will contribute to the development of new paradigms for media and religious studies. Contributors: Heike Behrend, Andre Chappatte, Maria Frahm-Arp, David Gordon, Liz Gunner, Bruce S. Hall, Sean Hanretta, Jorg Haustein, Katrien Pype, and Asonzeh Ukah.

Book excerpt: "Bringing together a wide diversity of authors based on three continents and from different disciplinary backgrounds, this book offers analyses of a wide range of factors that characterize and that are shaping the future of the African Sahel. In forty chapters, organized in nine sections, the book examines this complex and rapidly changing region on multiple dimensions. Collectively, the book attempts to offer an understanding of the specificity of the Sahel, and to examine its core characteristics as shaped by the geographic, cultural, and political parameters that define it. Following a series of chapters focused on the shaping of the Sahelian space as a region, six chapters explore the distinct national trajectories of the countries of the political Sahel: Senegal, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Chad. The extraordinary combination of environmental, economic and political challenges, and the ways in which Sahelian states and societies have responded, are the primary focus of the three subsequent sections, while the various parameters of the lived realities of these societies in motion are explored in the four final sections of the book. Transversally throughout, the chapters aim to offer an interdisciplinary and holistic view of the challenges and the dynamics that are shaping a region at an historical crossroads, and an understanding of the many factors that feed and perpetuate its vulnerabilities and fragilities, as well as its sources of resilience"--

Book excerpt: Up to 2012, Mali was a poster child of African democracy, despite multiple signs of growing dissatisfaction with the democratic experiment. Then disaster struck, bringing many of the nation's unresolved contradictions to international attention. A military coup carved off the country's south. A revolt by a coalition of Tuareg and extremist Islamist forces shook the north. The events, so violent and unexpected, forced experts to reassess Mali's democratic institutions and the neoliberal economic reforms enacted in conjunction with the move toward democracy. Rosa De Jorio's detailed study of cultural heritage and its transformations provides a key to understanding the impasse that confronts Malian democracy. As she shows, postcolonial Mali privileged its cultural heritage to display itself on the regional and international scene. The neoliberal reforms both intensified and altered this trend. Profiling heritage sites ranging from statues of colonial leaders to women's museums to historic Timbuktu, De Jorio portrays how various actors have deployed and contested notions of heritage. These actors include not just Malian administrators and politicians but UNESCO, and non-state NGOs. She also delves into the intricacies of heritage politics from the perspective of Malian actors and groups, as producers and receivers--but always highly informed and critically engaged--of international, national and local cultural initiatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing boards and blackboards are emblematic of two radically different styles of education in Islam. The essays in this lively volume address various aspects of the expanding and evolving range of educational choices available to Muslims in sub-Saharan Africa. Contributors from the United States, Europe, and Africa evaluate classical Islamic education in Africa from colonial times to the present, including changes in pedagogical methods—from sitting to standing, from individual to collective learning, from recitation to analysis. Also discussed are the differences between British, French, Belgian, and Portuguese education in Africa and between mission schools and Qur'anic schools; changes to the classical Islamic curriculum; the changing intent of Islamic education; the modernization of pedagogical styles and tools; hybrid forms of religious and secular education; the inclusion of women in Qur'anic schools; and the changing notion of what it means to be an educated person in Africa. A new view of the role of Islamic education, especially its politics and controversies in today's age of terrorism, emerges from this broadly comparative volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive analysis of Muslim movements of reform in modern sub-Saharan AfricaBased on twelve case studies (Senegal, Mali, Nigeria, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar and the Comoros), this book looks at patterns and peculiarities of different traditions of Islamic reform. Considering both Sufi- and Salafi-oriented movements in their respective historical contexts, it stresses the importance of the local context to explain the different trajectories of development.The book studies the social, religious and political impact of these reform movements in both historical and contemporary times and asks why some have become successful as popular mass movements, while others failed to attract substantial audiences. It also considers jihad-minded movements in contemporary Mali, northern Nigeria and Somalia and looks at modes of transnational entanglement of movements of reform. Against the background of a general inquiry into what constitutes areform, the text responds to the question of what areform actually means for Muslims in contemporary Africa.Key featuresBiographies of reformist scholars complement the textCase studies are placed in the context of the dynamics of areform in the larger world of IslamAddresses the importance of trans-national entanglements and their formative powerFocuses on the dynamics of social and religious development, the political dynamics of Islamic areform and issues of youth, generational change and gender
