Anouar Majid interviewed by Moroccan newspaper on the future of the Muslim world

A major Moroccan newspaper, Al Massae, published a long interview with UNE Associate Provost for Global Initiatives Anouar Majid, Ph.D., on American-Muslim relations, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the Moroccan-Spanish relations. 

The opening editorial describes Majid's work as controversial to set the ground for the answers he gives in the article. Majid says that the Muslim world has no option but to learn from the United States, revise its history and traditions, and approach the conflict in the Middle East with a sense of realism, not messianic visions.

Majid is the author of five critically acclaimed books on Islam and the West, including Islam and America: Building a Future without Prejudice, and a novel, Si Yussef, which has been the focus of much scholarly and critical interest. He is the editor of the magazine TingisRedux.
