The history of Islam, the world's second largest religion, is largely unknown in America. This course examines the modern era of Islamic history, from the 14th century to the present. Now dominant in much of the Middle East, Africa and the Asia-Pacific region, Islam is expected to become the second-largest religion in the United States by about 2040. In this course, learn about major Muslim empires and their contributions in arts and culture; the emergence of fundamentalism in Islam and other major world religions; the development of Islamic modernism and progressivism; the diversity of Islamic theology, thought and practice; and the history of Islam in America.
