In this open-access monograph, Paul Weller explores how the movement known as Hizmet (meaning ¿service¿) is undergoing a period of transitions in Europe.

It contends that to properly understand Hizmet in Europe, one has to situate it in its interactive engagement both with its diverse European national contexts and with Fethullah Gülen¿s teaching and practice.
