The MEI offers regular programing on topics related to Islamic law through its “Sharīʿa Workshop,” a series launched in 2015. The workshop brings together faculty and graduate students from Columbia and other universities in the region for intensive discussions of new research by leading specialists invited from the US and abroad.

This week, we will be joined by Yavuz Aykan of Université Paris 1.

The workshop is by invitation only and is based on pre-circulated papers read in advance of the session. Please sign up here if you wish to be put on the workshop invitation list or receive the papers.
