Muslims in the Sahel: stories of jihad

This roundtable aims at confronting the current narratives of the war on terrorism with historical perspectives on past jihad in the Sahel. Case studies include the Mad Mullah in Somaliland, the Mahdi in the Sudan, Rabih in Borno, El Hadj Omar in Senegal and Mali, the Sokoto caliphate in Nigeria and the Macina Empire in Mali. The debate is restricted to uprisings under the banner of Islam and does not cover any war involving Muslims.
