Samenvatting

Based on a political sociology of two families of religious scholars, al-Hakim and al-Khu'i, this book explains the internal workings of transnational leadership patterns in Shi'ism. It includes case studies of two prominent families of religious scholars, which explain the continued relevance of Shi'i clerics to Muslim politics and society.
