In this eye-opening discussion, Tariq Ramadan, one of the leading Islamic thinkers in the West and an occasional lightning rod for controversy, summarizes his views on Western Islam at a time when the topic is comprised of a number of themes regarding identity, religion, and culture. In an engaging, accessible style, he discusses various subjects that arouse great interest and controversy: the use of the burkha, religious education, the building of mosques, terrorism in the name of Islam, genital mutilation, and more. Ramadan’s simple yet powerful message is that Western culture and Islam need not be mutually exclusive concepts and, indeed, can form the basis of a shared and confident pluralism. En esta discusion esclarecedora, Tariq Ramadan, uno de los mas destacados pensadores islamicos en el occidente y un pararrayos ocasional para la controversia sintetiza su vision sobre el Islam occidental en un momento en que constata una gran confusion de temas de identidad, religion y cultura. Con un estilo ameno y didactico, aborda asuntos que suscitan mas polemica e interes: el uso del velo, la educacion religiosa, la creacion de mezquitas, el terrorismo en nombre del Islam, la mutilacion genital y mas. El mensaje de Ramadan es simple pero profundo: la cultura occidental y el Islam no tienen por que ser conceptos mutuamente excluyentes y, mas bien, pueden formar la fundacion de un pluralismo compartido y confidente.
