| Summary/Abstract |
John L. Esposito analyzes the future of Islam and Muslim-West relations. He argues that the mindset among policymakers and the narrative in U.S.-Muslim world relations is shifting away from a policy of "democratic exceptionalism" and support for authoritarian regimes. Now the United States is committed to democratic institution-building and civil society and is responsive to the aspirations and expectations of their peoples, political parties (Islamist and secular), and civil society organizations.
