What is the relationship between Islam and liberal democracy?
In the latest episode of my podcast, I speak to Prof. Hussein Solomon of @UFSUpdates, about the problem of radical Islam today and the countervailing forces of moderation and secularisation in the Muslim world.
We talk about:
💡 Whether democracy is an exclusively Western idea
💡 The role of political institutions and economic growth in creating fertile conditions for democracy to flourish
🚨 The security threat posed by extremist Islamic insurgencies in Sub-Saharan Africa.
