Redefining Home: Muslim Communities in the West

The CSIS Europe and Middle East Programs hosted a discussion with Jocelyne Cesari, author of Encyclopedia of Islam in America (Greenwood Press, 2007), a collection of scholarly articles and primary documents on Muslim life in the United States.  Dr. Cesari discussed the findings and research process behind the two-volume encyclopedia series and addressed some of the most pressing issues facing U.S. and European Muslim communities.

Dr. Cesari has been an associate at the Center for Middle Eastern Studies at Harvard University since spring 2001, and also teaches at Harvard Divinity School, where she directs the Islam in the West Program.
