Anouar Majid contributes chapter to book on history of Jewish-Muslim relations

Anouar Majid, Ph.D, associate provost for Global Initiatives and director of the Center for Global Humanities, contributed a chapter titled “The Semitic Solution:  Renewing the Natural Alliance Between Jews and Muslims” to the book Trialogue and Terror: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam after 9/11, edited by Alan L. Berger and published by Cascade Books.

The book explores relations between Jews and Muslims in the last millennium and argues for a rediscovery of the common destiny of Jews and Muslims.

The chapter is an abridged form of Majid's discussion of the same issue in his book We Are All Moors, published in 2009.
