Using survey data on religious preferences and behavior, the authors argue for the relevance and importance of four outlook categories—religious individualist, social communitarian, religious communitarian, and post-Islamist—and use these to explore complex and nuanced attitudes of devout Muslims toward issues like democracy and economic distribution. They also reveal how intrafaith variation in political attitudes is not due simply to doctrinal differences but is also a product of the social aspects of religious association operating within political contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy highlighting the dynamic societal and political implications of religious devotion, \u003ci\u003eBeyond Piety and Politics\u003c\/i\u003e offers a fascinating new theoretical perspective on Islam and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedication\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e1.
