and Beyond
As anthropologists who study Middle Eastern cultures, including the religion of Islam, we aim to provide accurate and appropriate information for our colleagues, educators, students, journalists and the public at large. This page provides links to anthropological perspectives on the tragedy of September 11th and its aftermath, especially the cultural background of the Middle East and Islam. The focus is on commentary by anthropologists and ethnographic analysis.
We share this information in the hope that it will contribute to a better understanding of America's relationship with societies in the Middle East and the current crisis. Members are invited to suggest additional sources for inclusion in this resource page.
