Islam in a modern metropolis

Abstract

Current issue of our journal is devoted to the Islam in a modern metropolis. We wanted to see what impact on Islam and Muslims make globalization, population growth in large cities and migration to the West, the rapid spread of the Internet and social media, transformation of marketing technologies, emergence of the new elites and social hierarchies. How do Muslims adapt to the new situation and engage with the new spaces? How does the Islamic tradition integrate itself into the new contexts and even transform them?
