The article describes Islamism as a multifaceted, multidimensional and constantly changing \nphenomenon which manifests itself at different levels. Islamism has many levels and manifestations. It is impossible to comprehend modern Muslim (and even more so Arab) societies without taking into account the \ninfluence of Islam as ideology, cultural environment, modality and way of life at the same time. It would be a \nmistake to represent Islamism as a node on the body of Muslim societies. In fact, Islamism largely reflects \nthe essence of modern Muslim societies, the way of thinking and life of the majority of their population. Islamism \nin many ways helps to support social, economic, political and various other subsystems at different \nlevels of society. It also creates a kind of Islamic model of modernization. In the article, the authors present \ntheir own vision of the reasons and grounds for the extensive and profound integration of Islamism into \nMuslim societies, argue why at the present stage it is impossible to eliminate Islamism and why to diminish \nthe influence of radical Islamism one should search for a compromise with moderate Islamists
