Malika Zeghal, an expert in religion who focuses on Islam, has been named the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Professor in Contemporary Islamic Thought and Life, the University announced yesterday.
Leaving her post at the University of Chicago's Divinity School as an associate professor of the anthropology and sociology of religion, Zeghal will join Harvard's department of Near Eastern languages and civilizations and the committee on the study of religion beginning on July 1.
Inspired by her firsthand experience witnessing the Islamic resurgence in Tunisia as an adolescent, Zeghal focuses her research on Islamist movements and the institutionalization of Islam in the Muslim world.
