BP50 .L58 1993 v.3

The West often associates Islam with technological backwardness religious intolerance and a savage penal code. Is this justified? Or should the concept of 'modernity' be seen in the context of the Third World and a fundamentally different world view? This program looks at the tensions within Islamic states as they attempt to make their laws and practices compatible with the Twenty-first Century while remaining true to the spirit of the faith.
