Final Report Abstract

The Berlin Graduate School Muslim Cultures and Societies investigates the plurality, changeability, and global connectedness of Muslim cultures and societies past and present. In a comparative way, it examines concepts, practices, and institutions variously understood as Islamic. Geographically, the Graduate School covers a broad spectrum: in addition to the Middle East, our research focuses on sub-Saharan Africa; Central, South, and Southeast Asia; and Muslim communities in Europe and North America. The Graduate School systematically combines and connects approaches from the humanities and social sciences in its research activities. This is reflected in the multidisciplinary composition of researchers and research projects. We thus offer supervision of doctoral projects in numerous discipline-based departments and area studies: Arabic Studies, Asian and African Studies, Central Asian Studies, History, Human Geography, Islamic Studies, Political Science, Semitic Studies, Social and Cultural Anthropology, South and Southeast Asian Studies, and Southeast European History. Research projects at our Graduate School address in particular strategies of dealing with diversity, difference, and distinction in a wide range of fields, be they religious, cultural, ethnic, social, economic, or political. They do this through one or more of the three focal areas of texts, objects, and practices. Texts form an important nexus through which diversity is negotiated within Muslim communities and societies. This negotiation occurs at all stages of textual production as well as during the reception and re-use of textual material. We understand the concept of text in a broad way: orally transmitted, written, or alternating between both modes. Objects can be used as key points of entry into understanding the ways in which Muslim communities deal with diversity and difference. This includes analysing material culture with reference to its discursive function as well as investigating the role of objects in social interactions. Our research in this area explores broader questions of power relations and the way these might affect various actors’ approaches to dealing with diversity. Possible research topics include perceptions of difference, individual strategies of dealing with diversity, and practices of enacting difference and hybridity. We support our doctoral candidates with a research-oriented curriculum. Our courses are designed to balance specialised research in a given field of study with multidisciplinary training. Our three-year modular programme offers supportive structures and provides sufficient time for field or archival research and writing. Our study programme includes colloquia, research seminars and workshops, language training and soft skills courses, regular meetings with supervisors, financial support for research and conference travel, as well as workspaces at the Graduate School. With more than half of our fellows coming from abroad, we offer a diverse and international environment for our candidates’ doctoral studies.
