The book contains 41 short essays by various authors about important terms concerning Islamic political theory, e.g. siyasa, dawla, dustur, dimuqratiyya, istibdad, qabila, etc. Through these terms, the book outlines Islamic political theory. The authors often point out the striking differences in the respective meanings, as well as uses of the Arabic terms and their European equivalents, due to the underlying differences in political theories and traditions.
