Finding Basic Comparison(s) between Islamism and Zionism

Abstract

This essay simply presents limited findings of understanding whether there are elements of comparison between Islamism and Zionism. It will first introduce their history very briefly, then, survey some of selected thinkers and their contributions to the literature, and lastly, finding elements of tangency or mutual comparisons from their extracted histories and thinkers’ contributions between them. Further, the representation of findings are delimited due to the author’s ‘still’ lack of extensive knowledge regarding the field of Zionism and readers may find it having unequal treatment between the two concepts – mea culpa.

Keywords: Islamism, Zionism
