Acknowledgments

We first want to acknowledge all those institutions at Princeton University who generously supported our workshop in May 2008: the Humanities Council, the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies (PIIRS), the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, the Center for the Study of Religion (CSR), the Institute for the Transregional Study of the Contemporary Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia, the Department of Religion, and the Program in Near Eastern Studies. Special thanks go to the Program in Near Eastern Studies, especially Professors Sükrü Hanioğlu, Michael Cook and Ms. Lorin Romeo, for their support. The editors would also like to thank the workshop participants for sharing their research and their ideas. Huma Dar and Gabriele Marranci could not contribute to the special issue; however, their presence and insight at the workshop were much appreciated. We would like to also extend our gratitude to Gabriele Marranci and Daniel Varisco, in their capacity as editors of Contemporary Islam, for their support and enthusiasm for the workshop and publishing project.
