"New Orientalism: Preliminary Introductions" by Abdullah ibn Abd al-Rahman al-Wuhaibi traces how Orientalism changed after the Second World War, from the traditional version tied to colonialism and missionary goals to a modern academic field using linguistic, anthropological and feminist methods, while still enjoying institutional support.
The author critiques attempts to rebrand Islamic studies under new labels such as "Arabist" or "Islamic specialist", shows the ideological assumptions they carry, and explains how New Orientalism can serve political agendas in stereotyping Muslim societies. Published by Afaq al-Ma'rifa.
