Summary | "The New World of Islam" by Lothrop Stoddard is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines the profound transformations within the Islamic world, particularly in the wake of the Great War, exploring the new ideas, aspirations, and movements that reshaped Islam from Morocco to China. Stoddard delves into the complexities of these changes in various aspects, including political, cultural, and religious dimensions, as he seeks to understand the overall evolution and implications for both the Islamic world and the West. The opening of the book sets the stage for a thorough exploration of the Islamic world during a time of significant change. Stoddard describes the historical context, tracing the decline of traditional Islamic society and the subsequent wave of reform movements, notably the Mohammedan Revival and Pan-Islamism. He highlights the role of figures such as Abd-el-Wahab and Seyid Djemal-ed-Din, whose efforts aim at reviving and purifying Islam amidst external pressures and internal decadence. Stoddard effectively captures the urgency and importance of these movements, framing them within a broader narrative of cultural and political struggle faced by Muslims in the contemporary world.
