  • Islamic Studies in the Twenty-First Century
    15 mm front 153 mm 8 mm 17,1 mm 8 mm front 153 mm 15 mm 15 mm The study of Islam and Muslim societies has changed drastically during the (eds) SandwijkBuskens & Van last three decades. The traditional methods of philology and intellectual history have met with considerable criticism by younger generations of scholars who have started to look at the social sciences, notably anthropology and social history, for guidance. These changes have been accompanied by the rise of new fields, such as Islam in Europe and in Africa, and new topics, such as gender, or the renaissance of older topics, most notably Islamic law. Scholars have successfully overcome older, unproductive oppositions, especially between the study of texts and practices. Islamic Studies in the Twenty-first Century: Transformations and Continuities brings together a series of essays surveying these transformations written by prominent scholars in the field. They analyse major innovations and new directions to take, but are also conscious of underlying continuities with a venerable tradition of almost two centuries. The collection is an excellent introduction to state of the art debates for both graduate students and senior scholars. Islamic Studies in the Twenty-first Century Twenty-first the in Studies Islamic Léon Buskens holds a chair for Law and Culture in Muslim societies at Leiden University and is director of the Netherlands Institute in Morocco Edited by Léon Buskens and Annemarie van Sandwijk (NIMAR). From its foundation in 2009 until the end of 2015 he was the first director of the Netherlands Interuniversity School for Islamic Studies (NISIS).
