This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durant sa longue carrière, Jean-Louis Triaud a creusé plusieurs sillons centrés sur la connaissance des sociétés musulmanes en Afrique de l'Ouest et au-delà. Cet ouvrage reflète les domaines couverts et développés dans ce cadre universitaire : modalités d'expansion de l'islam, manifestations culturelles et religieuses, personnalités marquantes... Ils forment le coeur de ce livre publié en sa compagnie. La continuité des thèmes qui ont alimenté cette réflexion a donné la possibilité à plusieurs de ses collègues, élèves et amis de réunir leurs contributions pour souligner le sens que la progression dans ces thématiques a eu pour leur parcours intellectuel respectif. Collabirent particulièrement à cet ouvrage plusieurs enseignants-chercheurs d'universités africaines qui ont maintenu fidèlement le lien avec leur directeur de recherche. A travers les études des "lieux", des "objets" (tels le livre, la langue, la lettre) et des "figures" de l'islam, les auteurs offrent de nouvelles interprétations des espaces musulmans dans le Sahara et dans le Sahel, traversés par les flux migratoires, par de nouvelles idées, parfois par des pulsions jihadistes. Des phénomènes gels que la "réislamisation" et la "laïcité", mais aussi les combats de différents acteurs musulmans pour leur statut et leurs idéaux se trouvent au centre de l'ouvrage. Ce livre apporte des regards nouveaux sur l'histoire des "confréries" et de leurs "réseaux", sur les rapports entre les pouvoirs et les institutions islamiques. Le trait commun de toutes les contributions, qui portent principalement sur l'Afrique occidentale mais aussi orientale et septentrionale, est leur regard d'historien marqué par une réflexion sur le sens et la portée de ce métier. Odile Goerg est professeure d'histoire de l'Afrique à l'université Paris Diderot-SEDET. Ses recherches, d'abord centrées sur la Guinée et la Sierra Leone, portent désormais sur l'Afrique occidentale dans une perspective comparatiste. Spécialiste d'histoire urbaine, elle s'intéresse à la diffusion des loisirs, en particulier du cinéma comme pratique sociale et enjeu politique. Anna Pondopoulo est historienne. Elle enseigne l'histoire des sociétés peules et l'histoire de l'islam et des sociétés musulmanes au sud du Sahara à l'INALCO. Ses recherches portent sur l'histoire des études orientales et africaines, notamment sur l'histoire de l'Ecole des langues orientales vivantes (Pris), sur la construction des identités peules, sur les relations entre la Russie et l'Afrique.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de la décennie et demie qui a suivi la fin de la Guerre froide, l'Afrique a connu des changements considérables qui ont également influencé les sociétés musulmanes et la pratique de l'islam à un degré dont la mesure n'a peut-être pas encore été totalement prise. C'est à ce phénomène que s'intéresse ce livre, dont les auteurs tentent d'explorer les dynamiques croisées de l'islam, de la société et de l'Etat en Afrique subsaharienne. Ils espèrent combler partiellement certaines lacunes de notre compréhension de l'Afrique contemporaine et incitent à remettre en question beaucoup d'idées reçues, sinon de préjugés concernant l'islam et les sociétés musulmanes en Afrique et ailleurs dans le monde. Se concentrant sur les récents défis et situations difficiles que les Africains et les musulmans africains, en particulier, ont rencontrés, l'ouvrage s'interroge sur la façon dont la pratique de l'islam est en train de se recomposer, notamment après le 11 septembre 2001, dans un monde en voie de globalisation. Il privilégie une acception assez large de la notion de politique, englobant la politique formelle des partis politiques, des élections et du gouvernement, aussi bien que la politique du quotidien, a d'en bas ". Sont donc pris en compte les arènes formelles et informelles de l'action politique, les nouveaux espaces et opportunités de débat dans l'espace public qui s'est élargi considérablement depuis les années 1990. Cet ouvrage met également au premier plan les interconnexions complexes et changeantes entre l'Afrique et le reste du monde, qui ont influencé le rapport à la politique en Afrique. Il met en scène des musulmans impliqués de différentes façons dans le débat politique : politiciens, fonctionnaires, jeunes activistes, étudiants, lettrés, prédicateurs et fournisseurs de services sociaux, etc. Ce sont ces acteurs qui font " l'islam mondain " compris comme l'islam dans le monde actuel ou dans des sociétés séculières contemporaines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mille ans de présence, cent vingt millions d'adeptes, soit un huitième de la population musulmane mondiale, tel est, en cette fin de Xe siècle, le bilan de l'islamisation de l'Afrique subsaharienne. Mais pour longue et significative que soit la présence au sud du Sahara de l'islam, religion d'une personne sur trois, il demeure encore assez méconnu. Fondé en 1987, la revue Islam et sociétés au sud du Sahara, animée par des chercheurs d'Europe, d'Afrique et Amérique et autres a contribué à mieux faire connaître cet islam. Cet ouvrage reprend une série d'articles publiés dans ses colonnes sur l'islam contemporain et actualisés pour les besoins de cette publication. Visant à mieux faire connaître un islam contemporain, au croisement de la longue durée historienne et de l'interrogation politologique, ce livre se veut introduction et illustration du champ islamo-africaniste. La perspective d'ensemble y est combinée avec l'étude de cas, l'outil de vulgarisation avec la recherche de pointe.

Download or read book Islamic Education in Africa written by Robert Launay and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing boards and blackboards are emblematic of two radically different styles of education in Islam. The essays in this lively volume address various aspects of the expanding and evolving range of educational choices available to Muslims in sub-Saharan Africa. Contributors from the United States, Europe, and Africa evaluate classical Islamic education in Africa from colonial times to the present, including changes in pedagogical methods—from sitting to standing, from individual to collective learning, from recitation to analysis. Also discussed are the differences between British, French, Belgian, and Portuguese education in Africa and between mission schools and Qur'anic schools; changes to the classical Islamic curriculum; the changing intent of Islamic education; the modernization of pedagogical styles and tools; hybrid forms of religious and secular education; the inclusion of women in Qur'anic schools; and the changing notion of what it means to be an educated person in Africa. A new view of the role of Islamic education, especially its politics and controversies in today's age of terrorism, emerges from this broadly comparative volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive analysis of Muslim movements of reform in modern sub-Saharan AfricaBased on twelve case studies (Senegal, Mali, Nigeria, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar and the Comoros), this book looks at patterns and peculiarities of different traditions of Islamic reform. Considering both Sufi- and Salafi-oriented movements in their respective historical contexts, it stresses the importance of the local context to explain the different trajectories of development.The book studies the social, religious and political impact of these reform movements in both historical and contemporary times and asks why some have become successful as popular mass movements, while others failed to attract substantial audiences. It also considers jihad-minded movements in contemporary Mali, northern Nigeria and Somalia and looks at modes of transnational entanglement of movements of reform. Against the background of a general inquiry into what constitutes areform, the text responds to the question of what areform actually means for Muslims in contemporary Africa.Key featuresBiographies of reformist scholars complement the textCase studies are placed in the context of the dynamics of areform in the larger world of IslamAddresses the importance of trans-national entanglements and their formative powerFocuses on the dynamics of social and religious development, the political dynamics of Islamic areform and issues of youth, generational change and gender
Download or read book Claiming and Making Muslim Worlds written by Jeanine Elif Dağyeli and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To what extent can Islam be localized in an increasingly interconnected world? The contributions to this volume investigate different facets of Muslim lives in the context of increasingly dense transregional connections, highlighting how the circulation of ideas about ‘Muslimness’ contributed to the shaping of specific ideas about what constitutes Islam and its role in society and politics. Infrastructural changes have prompted the intensification of scholarly and trade networks, prompted the circulation of new literary genres or shaped stereotypical images of Muslims. This, in turn, had consequences in widely differing fields such as self-representation and governance of Muslims. The contributions in this volume explore this issue in geographical contexts ranging from South Asia to Europe and the US. Coming from the disciplines of history, anthropology, religious studies, literary studies and political science, the authors collectively demonstrate the need to combine a translocal perspective with very specific local and historical constellations. The book complicates conventional academic divisions and invites to think in historically specific translocal contexts.
