Abstract

The chapter emphasizes that it is the local level, more than the level of governmental policy or Islamic organisations, which is the crucial space for the redefinition of Islamic leadership. The emergence of a new generation of leaders, who act as 'mediators' between Muslim communities and dominant institutions (local authorities, the media, the Church) makes the difference.
