New Perspectives on the Nation of Islam contributes to the ongoing dialogue about the nature and influence of the Nation of Islam (NOI), bringing fresh insights to areas that have previously been overlooked in the scholarship of Elijah Muhammad’s NOI, the Imam W.D. Mohammed community and Louis Farrakhan’s Resurrected NOI. Bringing together contributions that explore the formation, practices, and influence of the NOI, this volume problematizes the history of the movement, its theology, and relationships with other religious movements. Contributors offer a range of diverse perspectives, making connections between the ideology of the NOI and gender, dietary restrictions and foodways, the internationalization of the movement, and the civil rights movement. This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of current scholarship on the Nation of Islam, and will be relevant to scholars of American religion and history, Islamic studies, and African American Studies.

MERHABA, KONNICHIWA.. This book is about two of the most inspiring leaders of all time, Atatürk and Emperor Meiji of Japan, and the destinies of the countries they changed, Turkey and Japan. Atatürk was the founding father of the new Republic of Turkey after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, and Meiji was the 122nd Emperor of Japan who established a new system of government in Japan following the departure of the last shogun. Atatürk (1881-1938) and Meiji (1852-1912) were mirror images of one another. They both were revolutionary reformists, determined to unleash their countries from their feudal pasts into modernity. The identical reforms of Atatürk in Turkey in the 1920s and the 1930s, and Meiji’s reforms in Japan in the late 1800s were intended to rip their countries out of the darkness of the Middle Ages. They both foresaw their nations’ advancement only through full adaptation of Western values and institutions, which was an extremely difficult task, considering the impossible ordeal of convincing the predominantly unsophisticated and regressive Muslim and Shinto societies. They changed their peoples’ obstinate cultural habits and institutions of thousands of years. Having an unyielding commitment to secularism, they identified secularism to be the only path to modernization. * All these and many other similar accomplishments were truly extraordinary because of their very identical nature; however, as I discovered during my research the eerie similar past lives, life experiences and personal resemblances of Atatürk and Meiji in opposite corners of the world, I felt that the writing of this book became more of a mission for me than just writing a history book. The core of this book however, explores two issues: the first is the reason why Turkey and Japan occupy two starkly contrasting places on the world stage today, despite the fact that Atatürk and Meiji had enacted nearly identical reforms in their respective countries; the second is the nature of the current and ongoing conflict between two different factions in Turkey – the political Islamists and the Western-minded secularists, the followers of Atatürk. Equally importantly, I will also talk about the Turkish and Japanese cultures and the curiously intertwined histories of Turkey and Japan, which go back 747 years, dating back to the invasions of Japan in 1274 and 1281 by Kublai Khan’s Mongolian armies, which, by the way, were mostly made up of Christian Turks. As I mentioned at the top, although the essence of this book is to make comparisons between the contrasting end results of identical reforms of Atatürk in Turkey in the 1920s and the 1930s, and Meiji’s reforms in Japan in the late 1800s, the end result of that contrast between Japan and Turkey actually emerges before us as one foregone conclusion: Turkey, since Atatürk’s death in 1938, did not follow his footsteps, unlike Japan after Meiji. So, what did happen? Why did Turkey and Japan with the very identical reforms of Atatürk and Meiji end up in two contrasting places in the spectrum of advanced development today? What was the culprit? My arguments in this book will point in the direction of the political Islamists and their manipulative usage of Islam since Atatürk’s death, most specifically, in the direction of the cruel war they have waged in recent years against Atatürk’s secular and Western ideals.

Jews in Japan: Presence and Perception. Antisemitism, Philosemitism and International Relations is a study on the history of real and imagined Jews in Japan, which discusses the little known cultural, political and economic ties between Jews and Japan, and follows the evolution of Jewish stereotypes in Japan in the last century and a half. The book begins with the arrival of Jews and their image in late 19th to early 20th-century Japan, when the seeds of later stereotyped visions were sown. The discussion then focuses on wartime Japan, delving into the complex and mixed attitudes of the Japanese Empire toward Jews. In postwar Japan, the partial reception of the Holocaust intertwined with earlier antisemitic and philosemitic manifestations, resulting in instances of both hatred and admiration toward Jews. Finally, the book explores the recent reframing of Japanese-Jewish historical encounters within the context of the growing ties between Japan and Israel. This study sheds new light on the little explored relations between Jews and Japan, offering thought-provoking insights into the coexistence of antisemitism and philosemitism, the political and diplomatic uses of Jewish history, and the perpetuation of Jewish stereotypes in a land devoid of a local Jewish population.

This book offers a useful and extensive account of Japan’s past discoveries and present interactions with Muslim states and societies across Asia. Bearing in mind the U.S.-led global meta-narrative of Islam spoken in tandem with security and threats, this book examines how this reconciles with Japan’s self-proclaimed “values-based” approach to diplomacy across Asia in the twenty-first century. The author considers Japan’s historic conceptualization and learning of Islam, and its acute needs for access to markets and energy from Muslim-majority states in Asia. He also argues that Japan securitizes Islam in a manner distinct from Western, Russian, or Chinese securitization today, but that Japan promotes itself as a model for human security and development across an Asia inclusive of Muslim states. Japan’s approach to Islam and Muslim societies today offers much from which other great powers can learn.

In this major contribution to Muslim intellectual history, Andrew Hammond offers a vital reappraisal of the role of Late Ottoman Turkish scholars in shaping modern Islamic thought. Focusing on a poet, a sheikh and his deputy, Hammond re-evaluates the lives and legacies of three key figures who chose exile in Egypt as radical secular forces seized power in republican Turkey: Mehmed Akif, Mustafa Sabri and Zahid Kevseri. Examining a period when these scholars faced the dual challenge of non-conformist trends in Islam and Western science and philosophy, Hammond argues that these men, alongside Said Nursi who remained in Turkey, were the last bearers of the Ottoman Islamic tradition. Utilising both Arabic and Turkish sources, he transcends disciplinary conventions that divide histories along ethnic, linguistic and national lines, highlighting continuities across geographies and eras. Through this lens, Hammond is able to observe the long-neglected but lasting impact that these Late Ottoman thinkers had upon Turkish and Arab Islamist ideology.
