Description
Summary:This volume, derived from a conference held at Columbia University in 2008, contains ten chapters written by some of the leading scholars on Senegal. The editor is Mamadou Diouf, professor of African studies and history at Columbia and the author of many books and articles on Senegal. Tolerance, Democracy, and Sufis in Senegal is a major addition to discussions on politics, religion, and social change in that country. Moreover, its value comes from the perspective it adds to discussions on the changing roles of Islam in politics in the Middle East and North and West Africa generally.
