نبذة الناشر:This unique book traces the career trajectory of one the most prominent figures in modern political Islam, against a background of cultural, political and economic upheaval in Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon. From Sayyid Hussein Fadlallah's early intellectual development through his scholastic and political engagements, Jamal Sankari assesses the cleric's impact ...on both the resistance group Hizbullah and on the region as a whole.
Demonised by the West, and denounced by Muslim conservatives for his 'moderation' and 'innovation', Fadlallah was one of the first Islamic figures to condemn the events of 11 September while at the same time remaining amongst the harshest, relentless critics of the US role in the Middle East.
