Reviews
"Shadi Hamid provides an invaluable corrective to Western interpretations of Islam, Islamism, and the future of democracy in the Muslim world. Whatever debate remains to be had cannot take place without reference to this insightful and sympathetic document."-- Lawrence Wright, author of The Looming Tower and Thirteen Days in September "A riveting account of the Arab Spring and all that followed, by one of the world's leading scholars on political Islam. Shadi Hamid explains convincingly that Islam and the political movements it spawns are truly exceptional and likely to frustrate the 'liberal determinists' who believe that history inevitably gravitates to a secular future. A hugely important book." -- General David Petraeus (Ret.), former director of the CIA and commander of coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan " Islamic Exceptionalism is an honest, deeply researched, and at times anguished effort to make sense of the Middle East after the failure of the Arab Spring and the rise of ISIS. Particularly rich and subtle on the crisis facing the Muslim Brotherhood, the book offers both a snapshot of a painful moment and a long-view inquiry into the meeting between Islam and democracy. Sobering, urgent reading for anyone who cares about the region, past and future." -- Noah Feldman, Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law, Harvard Law School and author of Cool War , Scorpions , and The Fall and Rise of the Islamic State "A smart and highly readable book by one of the leading experts on the topic. Hamid examines the defining problem in the modern Middle East: how to mix religion and politics. His heartfelt fear is that in the age of ISIS a solution won't come quickly because the features of a modern democratic state are often at odds with the path to God."-- David Gregory, former host of Meet the Press and author of How's Your Faith "Hamid offers readers a vital road map to navigate the chaos and confusion that is the post-Arab-Spring Middle East." -- Reza Aslan, New York Times bestselling author of Zealot and No God but God "Beyond the zero-sum proposals of Islam or liberalism, Shadi Hamid boldly wrestles with how these two can negotiate the future of Muslim polities. Along the way, he educates us, challenging entrenched stereotypes and blind presumptions, especially the notion that the Muslim world must, can, or should go the way of the West. Islam is a constant not a variable. Islamic Exceptionalism suggests that this may be the beginning of wisdom for anyone wishing to understand, let alone shape, the political future of majority Muslim states."-- Sherman A. Jackson, King Faisal Chair in Islamic Thought and Culture, University of Southern California "Fresh, provocative thinking." -- Kirkus Reviews "Hamid's work offers a tempered, well-researched analysis of Islamism in its current state and offers tentative hopes for those seeking a new way through the intricacies of Islamic politics in the Middle East." -- Publishers Weekly, "Hamid offers readers a vital roadmap to navigate the chaos and confusion that is the post Arab-Spring Middle East." --Reza Aslan, New York Times bestselling author of Zealot and No God but God, "Shadi Hamid provides an invaluable corrective to Western interpretations of Islam, Islamism, and the future of democracy in the Muslim world.

Everybody interested in understanding Islamic terrorism will benefit from this book. " --The Washington BookReview "The reflections here on the trajectory of Islam, Islamism, and the Muslim world are thoughtful and worthy of consideration. For me, the book also provided the rarest of enjoyments; it changed the way I looked at the world, even if just a bit." -- Murtaza Hussain "[ Islamic Exceptionalism ] limns the Islamist mind in unnerving detail...a valuable study." -- The National Interest

Synopsis
Shortlisted for the 2017 Lionel Gelber Prize In Islamic Exceptionalism, Brookings Institution scholar and acclaimed author Shadi Hamid offers a novel and provocative argument on how Islam is, in fact, "exceptional" in how it relates to politics, with profound implications for how we understand the future of the Middle East. Divides among citizens aren't just about power but are products of fundamental disagreements over the very nature and purpose of the modern nation state--and the vexing problem of religion's role in public life. Hamid argues for a new understanding of how Islam and Islamism shape politics by examining different models of reckoning with the problem of religion and state, including the terrifying--and alarmingly successful--example of ISIS. With unprecedented access to Islamist activists and leaders across the region, Hamid offers a panoramic and ambitious interpretation of the region's descent into violence. Islamic Exceptionalism is a vital contribution to our understanding of Islam's past and present, and its outsized role in modern politics. We don't have to like it, but we have to understand it--because Islam, as a religion and as an idea, will continue to be a force that shapes not just the region, but the West as well in the decades to come., In Islamic Exceptionalism, Brookings Institution scholar and acclaimed author Shadi Hamid offers a novel and provocative argument on how Islam is, in fact, "exceptional" in how it relates to politics, with profound implications for how we understand the future of the Middle East.
