Kurs, İslam'ın küresel politikadaki dinamiklerini anlamak için tasarlanan birbiriyle bağlantılı tarihsel ve devam eden tartışmaların bazılarına odaklanmaktadır. Hem Müslüman çoğunluk ülkelerinde hem de Batı'da Müslüman siyasetinin çeşitliliği ve karmaşıklığı hakkında bilgi sağlayacaktır. İslamın küresel politikadaki rolü, milliyetçilik, İslamcılık, demokrasi, liberalizm, radikalizm, kadın ve cinsiyet ile olan ilişkisi ile araştırılacaktır.
