Within some policy circles, at the heart of these conflicts lies a fundamental incompatibility between different ethno-linguistic and religious communities; it is held that these divisions impede any form of political resolution or social cohesion. Yet, despite this galvanised public focus on pluralism and 'minorities' within the turbulent Middle East, there has been limited scholarship exploring these tensions.
Sites of Pluralism fills this significant gap, going beyond a narrow focus on minority politics to examine the larger canvas of community spheres in the Middle East. Through eight case studies from esteemed experts in law, education, history, architecture, anthropology and political science, this multi-disciplinary volume offers a critical view of the Middle East's diverse, pluralistic fabric: how it has evolved throughout history; how it influences current political, economic and social dynamics; and what possibilities it offers for the future.
Firat Oruc is Assistant Professor at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service in Qatar. He specialises in cultural studies of the Middle East, global literatures, and world cinema. Oruc is currently completing two books: on the making of world literature in Turkey, and on the history of cinema in the Arabian Peninsula.
