A controversial view of the rise of various fundamentalist religous movements throughout the world. Kepel, however, finds the term “fundamentalism,” which derives from the American Protestant experience, to be inadequate for understanding revivalist movements throughout the rest of the world. Ranging from America to Europe and the Middle East, from Protestant televangelists to ultra-Orthodox Jews, from Islamic militants to the “charismatic renewal,” Kepel argues that each of these movements resists the spirit of modernity and secularism.
