Abstract in another language
Muslims in Kenyan Politics: Political Involvement, Marginalization, and Minority Status. Evanston, il: Northwestern University Press, 2014, 232 pp., 978 0 8101 3002 9, $79.95 (cloth).
This is the first extended treatment of Kenyan Muslim politics since Arye Oded’s Islam and Kenyan Politics (2000). With religiopolitical tensions in contemporary Kenya having reached a high-water mark as political cleavages intensify along religious lines, Ndzovu’s short but impressive study is a timely and vital contribution to the body of recent academic literature on religion and politics in Kenya.
