Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life focuses on topical issues
and takes an interdisciplinary approach that benefits from a
cross-cultural perspective: articles will explore the relationship
between Islam and its contemporary cultural, material, gender,
economic, political, and religious expressions from different
socio-scientific perspectives, such as anthropology, sociology,
education, politics, international relations, ethnomusicology, arts,
film studies, economics, human rights, international law, diaspora
minority studies, demography, and ethics.
Focus
The journal provides insights into the contemporary dynamics of Muslim
life by focusing on questions concerning the presence of Muslim
migrants in the West as well as western-born Muslims, and the
continuing active role that Islam plays in their lives. The journal
also intends to provide insights into the idea of ‘the
West’ among Muslims as well as the relationship between
Muslim identities and social life. Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of
Muslim Life regards Islam as a modern religion in today’s
global societies.

As the first socio-scientific journal to focus on Muslim life,
Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life will be of interest to

of Islam. The editorial board reflects the multidisciplinary approach
