Summary

From this introductory post in Allegra Lab’s interdisciplinary blog series entitled, “Muslim Humanitarianism” curated by the Graduate Institute of Geneva’s Till Mostowlansky in 2019, we are introduced to the range and breadth of theoretical and methodological approaches used in the study of humanitarianism in Muslim contexts.

The full thematic thread facilitates conversation between anthropologists and historians working on a range of Muslim settings who explore the very possibility of Muslim humanitarianism, from theoretical and methodological perspectives.
