"description": "<p>Academic, theological and cultural discussions on fundamentalism are overwhelmingly dominated by a discourse on the need for \u2018modernization and development\u2019 in the Muslim world. Yet, the crude distinction between East and West, religious and non-religious, Muslim and modern frequently fails to understand the under currents of psychological thought patterns in modern forms of fundamentalism. If we genuinely want to have a deeper understanding of contemporary tensions, Muslims as well as non-Muslims need to look beyond geo-politcal explanations and recognize how key dimensions of Islamism are deeply linked to the modern, masculine \u2018mind\u2019.</p>\n<p>This psychological and feminist exploration identifies some of the intricate links between modernity, Islam, gender, sexuality, violence and fundamentalisms. Mediated by certain psycho-theological \u2018penetrations and (s)permutations\u2019, they form the psychology of a growing global paranoia about \u2018the other\u2019, East and West.</p>",
