About the Project

Project term: April, 2014–March, 2017

The general outline of this study project is to conduct comparative field research on the nature of ethnic relations between Muslims and Non-Muslims in various Southeast Asian countries. To this purpose, the research project would invite researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds such as Anthropology, History, Political Science, and Islamic Studies to contribute to the study.
