Although Islam is not new to West Africa, new patterns of domestic economies, the promise of political liberalization, and the proliferation of new media have led to increased scrutiny of Islam in the public sphere. Dorothea E. Schulz shows how new media have created religious communities that are far more publicly engaged than they were in the past.

This volume envisions social practices surrounding mosques, shrines and public spaces in urban contexts as a window on the diverse ways in which Muslims in different regional and historical settings imagine, experience, and inhabit places and spaces as »sacred«. Unlike most studies on Muslim communities, this volume focuses on cultural, material and sensuous practices and urban everyday experience. Drawing on a range of analytical perspectives, the contributions examine spatial practices in Muslim societies from an interdisciplinary perspective, an approach which has been widely neglected both in Islamic studies and social sciences. »Das Buch ist in vielen Abschnitten vor allem für diejenigen Stadtplaner und Architekten von Interesse, die sich für das Zusammenspiel von Religion und Stadt(gesellschaft) interessieren und sich auch auf neue und ungewohnte Eindrücke und Zugänge einlassen möchten.« Tobias Meier, www.urbanophil.net, 20.07.2012 Reviewed in: Oriente Moderno, 94 (2014), Roberto Tottoli
