Description
Résumé:Militant revivalist groups appeared in both Iran and Egypt shortly after the first world war when Western domination became a clear and present danger. Importantly, both revivalist movements "tied into some of the aims" of the secular nationalist movement, particularly in the heyday of Nasser of Egypt and Mossadegh of Iran. With their ascendancy to power both Nasser and Mossadegh became threatened by revivalists and moved against them. Keddie's main thesis is that the failure of secular nationalism in Egypt and Iran to meet fully the social and cultural needs of the two peoples led to religious revivalism. More specifically, the growing association of Arab and Iranian secularism with heavy Western influence and control is an important factor in recent Islamic revival. (DÜI-Asd)
