Mobilizing and mediatizing Middle Eastern Diasporas
The Arab uprisings in 2010—2011 have fostered new movements of immigrants from Middle Eastern countries to Europe and the US, leaving a region characterized by political instability, economic deterioration, civil war, and new authoritarianism. This introductory chapter presents the situation in the Middle East and the subsequent reconfiguration of Middle Eastern diasporas. Asking how these diasporas connect to, and interact with, their country of origin, the chapter outlines the concepts of political mobilization and diasporic media that together make the framework that guides all the contributions to this book
Diasporic political communication among Arabs in Europe: from online campaigning to friendship networks
This chapter is based on a collective research project run by four scholars at Copenhagen University. The focus of the work is on the political communication of Arab diasporic communities in Europe originating from Syria, Bahrain, Egypt, and Tunisia. The aim of this chapter is to theorize the aspects of political communication among the Arab diaspora. The empirical data were collected through interviews and observations in several European countries: the UK, France, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, and Turkey. The analysis has shown that political communication in the diaspora revolves around the interaction of the diaspora members on three levels: the country of origin, the country of residence, and international associations. Based on these three levels of interaction, this chapter has outlined five key aspects of political communication practiced by Arab diasporic communities in Europe: involvement in political parties, association establishment, online campaigning, friendship networks, and international activism
The role of Shari’a as a source of Law: looking for a pragmatic approach
Starting from the second half of the last century, a great emphasis has been put on Shari’a as a central element in the legal system of many Muslim-majority states. The common approach to considering Islamic legal systems, however, is still dominated by a monolithical conceptualization of Islamic law, where the description of Shari’a is derived from abstract reasoning on what Shari’a is or ought to be. The aim of this article, after a discussion of the concept of law in Islamic legal thought and an overview of the different interpretations of Islamic law as elaborated within divergent cultures (Arab Republic of Egypt, UAE and Saudi Arabia), is to advance the idea of Islamic Law as an essentially contested concept, and to detach its analysis from any formalism in favour of an acknowledgment of its antagonistic, unfixed and ever-evolving natur
