| Call for Papers: "Post-Soviet Islam: an Anthropolical Perspective", Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle, Germany, 29 June - 1 July, 2005 |
| on Friday, October 08, 2004 - 09:02 AM Posted by: Admin |
| The aim of this conference is to bring together social anthropologists and other social scientists working on issues relating to Islam in the Former Soviet Union. We welcome proposals from both local and foreign scholars who have completed extensive field research in the region. Papers dealing with Islam in other postsocialist contexts will be considered if they fit in with the overall themes of the conference. After being suppressed by state authorities within the Soviet Union, Islam has re-entered the public sphere in the successor states. Of course, this is taking place very differently across the region. In Central Asia the majority of the populations in the new independent republics profess to be Muslim. |
