His research highlights the cross-fertilization of these political ideas and norms from the Middle Ages onward, and demonstrates that comparative political theory offers tools that go beyond dialogue to create new hybrid ideas to better serve todays increasingly interconnected and global communities while still respecting local narratives and traditions.

I would like to acknowledge here, briefly, the work of others who have helped bring this collection to life. Any book is the work of many more than just its author, a collected edition even more so. I would like to acknowledge and thank first and foremost the King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies in Riyadh for supporting the publication of the book, as well as for their support of the Annual Islamic Political Thought Conference. Faisal Abualhassan has been helpful every step of the way. In addition, the encouragement of Iradj Bagerzade until his retirement last year was an unparalleled source of support. Finally, I would like to thank Natana Delong-Baz for her comments on an early draft of the book.
