"'Against Another Life': Issues, Concepts and Names in Post-1980 Islamic Periodicals"
Islamic Periodicals Project (IDP), which has been carried out by ILEM (Scientific Studies Association) with great devotion and intensive work since 2013, has brought to light a unique archive with the completion of its third phase. The meeting of these sources with researchers has not only led to the revision of the memorization of the recent Islamic thought, but also opened a detailed examination of the origins of the current debates.
As a fruit of and complementary to the Islamic Periodicals Project, which aims to examine the one hundred-year course of Islamism from 1908 to the present day through primary sources, "'Against Another Life': Issues, Concepts and Names in Post-1980 Islamic Periodicals". This book, edited by Lütfi Sunar, examined the basic dynamics, founding names and discussion areas of Islamic Periodicals published after 1980, and was presented to the readers as a corpus of 72 articles, 49 personal portraits and 47 magazine articles in 4 volumes with the contributions of 116 authors.
With this 4-volume corpus, the journals published after 1980 are examined from a rich perspective, through a historical inquiry and on different themes. This work, which reveals certain breaking points of Islamist thought, its tendencies and its relationship with other social actors through in-depth discussions, is the follow-up and complementary to the books "Islamic Periodicals Between 1960-1980" and "Islam'ı Uyandırmak (Waking Up Islam) (2), which examine the period between 1908-1960, which are the fruits of the first two stages of the IDP.
