Abstract
Since 1991, when multi-party democracy was established in Mali, there has been a remarkable proliferation of Muslim associations that call for moral renewal of Malian society and for spreading the teachings of Islam. Some associations make extensive use of broadcast technology, helping them create transnational communities of believers at an unprecedented rate. Women play a prominent role in these associations, not only as followers, but as self-appointed spokeswomen and models of a new 'Islamic' way of life. |
