As part of the Paderborn University Afghanistan Talks, the Centre for Comparative Theology and Cultural Studies (ZeKK) invites those who are interested to a book review and discussion with the Islamic scholar Dr. Jan-Peter Hartung from the Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg on 29 January. The event starts at 6 pm and will take place in the AStA Gew?lbekeller on Marienplatz.
Hartung's current work sheds light on the history and ideology of the Taliban from a new perspective and examines their emergence in the topographically, ethically and geopolitically unique Pashtun region of Afghanistan and Pakistan. The discussion with the author will not only focus on his historical analysis, but also on the current situation in Afghanistan and the significance of these developments for the region and beyond.
The evening is being organised jointly with the Paderborn Institute for Islamic Theology (PIIT) and the Institute for Law and Society in Afghanistan (ILSAF e.V.) and is sponsored by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia as part of the Forum for Comparative Theology.
