But what does "fundamentalism" really mean? Since it was coined by American Protestant evangelicals in the 1920s, the use of the term "fundamentalist" has expanded to include a diverse range of radical conservatives and ideological purists, not all religious. Fundamentalism could now mean both militant Israeli settlers as well as the Islamist radicals who oppose them; it can mean Christians, Hindus, animal liberationists, and even Buddhist nationalists. Here, Middle East expert Malise Ruthven investigates fundamentalism's historical, social, religious, political, and ideological roots, and tackles the polemic and stereotypes surrounding this complex phenomena-one that eludes simple definition, yet urgently needs to be understood. 000350289 650_0 $$aReligious fundamentalism. 000350289 650_0 $$aRadicalism. 000350289 830_0 $$aVery short introductions ;$$v155 000350289 85200 $$bgen$$hBL238$$i.R87$$i2007 000350289 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0723/2007295968-b.html 000350289 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0723/2007295968-d.html 000350289 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:350289$$pGLOBAL_SET 000350289 980__ $$aBIB 000350289 980__ $$aBOOK
