A scholarly analysis that challenges assumptions about the incompatibility of religion and liberal democracy in Muslim-majority societies. Hashemi argues that liberal democracy requires a form of secularism that can be indigenized within Islamic contexts and that religious traditions can play a constructive role in democratic development by reinterpreting political roles for religion rather than relegating it to the private sphere.
