This book analyzes the relationship between Western and Islamic political ideas. The focus is on the similarities and differences between Western liberal democracy and shura - often seen as the Islamic counterpart to Western democracy. This is the first work to provide a direct and detailed comparison between the two systems of ideas, as given expression in the concrete political systems which have emerged.

Mishal Fahm al-Sulami is Assistant Professor of Modern Western Political Thought in the Arts and Humanities Faculty, King Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia
