Extract

In this roundtable, we have asked a group of specialists anchored in different but overlapping scholarly communities to reflect on the academic study of Islamist movements, and they present their thoughts on its evolution as well as their suggestions for its future course. The contributions are worth reading in their entirety and quite short, so there is no point in summarizing them here. But it is worth observing that the contributions highlight and begin to explore three areas in which various modes of inquiry and communities of specialists can overlap, interact with, and even cross-fertilize each other.
