Summary/Abstract: REVIEW: Already for many years Anssi Kullberg and Christian Jokinen have specialized on political Islam and its relationship with the surrounding environment of ideas and cultures. Both of them have extensively studied within the region and have followed the ongoing debates and the progress of the political ideas around the area. They have published the outcome of their research both in journals (especially in the Eurasian Politician, but also, to take Kullberg’s example, in the first two issues of this journal) and in mass-media (for instance, in the Finnish popular newspapers Turun Sanomat), giving a large publicity to their findings. Joining the Finnish Foreign Ministry in 2004, Kullberg was able to further his knowledge of Islam by being accredited in the Middle East, whereas Jokinen acquired an invaluable ground-knowledge as a member of the Finnish peace-keeping force in Afghanistan.
