CENTRE FOR MIDDLE EASTERN
AND ISLAMIC STUDIES
University of Bergen
Research
Middle Eastern and Islamic studies in Bergen cover a wide field both geographically
and thematically, certain common focuses stand out and cut across departmental
and subject boundaries; and also unite a number of independent individual
and joint research projects. The Middle Centre are working to promote
these cross-departmental links by establishing some more long-term 'research
focuses' around these individual projects.
In the current period, two such research focuses are, on the hand 'Society
and Culture around the Indian Ocean', on the other 'The interaction of
Islam with society' (with particular attention, respectively, to Africa
and to Europe/Norway).
In addition, there are serveral individual Research Projects.
