ISLAMIC WORLD: Thought-provoking Presentations

Various sources, via Pat Noble

A semi-annual Conference on Religion, Politics, and Public Life was held last month in Florida and included insightful presentations on the topic The Islamic State: Understanding its Ideology and Theology. You can listen to the audio recordings or read the transcripts.

Earlier this month, Brookings Institution convened a US-Islamic World Forum in Qatar. Watch nine videos from that event. First on my list is one on Pluralism in the Islamic World.

My list would not be complete without some TED talks; this time, a playlist on terrorism.

I saved the best for last: Lausanne’s 2014 Global Consultation on Islam includes informative presentations on Progressive and Liberative Islam.
