The new series Islam ¿ Thought, Culture, and Society brings together innovative research dealing with any aspect of Islamic religion, civilization, and thought. It also takes into consideration non-Muslim majority societies as well as non-Muslim groups within Islamic contexts. The series is intentionally interdisciplinary with a broad regional scope, covering all eras from early Islam to the 21st century. This peer reviewed series is a joint project with the British Association for Islamic Studies (BRAIS); the winning manuscript of the annual De Gruyter-BRAIS prize will be published in the series.
