Controversias en el tintero: la retórica del "fundamentalismo religioso" entre los musulmanes de Barcelona y Madrid
Over the last two decades, fundamentalism has been approached in the Social Sciences as a style of belief through which some of the faithful – besieged by modernity and secularisation – try to preserve their identity as the ‘chosen’ people (see Bruce, 2000; Marty & Appleby, 1991, 1995; Ruthven,...

description | Over the last two decades, fundamentalism has been approached in the Social Sciences as a style of belief through which some of the faithful – besieged by modernity and secularisation – try to preserve their identity as the ‘chosen’ people (see Bruce, 2000; Marty & Appleby, 1991, 1995; Ruthven, 2004). However, this analysis is deterministic and essentialist, in that it circumscribes religious diversity and ignores political, ethnic, cultural and historical variables. To this end, this report presents some findings from my recent fieldwork in Barcelona and Madrid and I will set forth the ways in which different Muslim groups have formed their own ideas of this concept. After all, to understand the meaning of the concept, it is necessary to study the ways in which different people manage and reformulate the ideas of fundamentalism. |
