  Seminar - Asia

  Économie de waqf-habous : possession et circulation des propriétés en waqf en terre d’islam

  Economy and waqf-habous: possession and circulation of waqf properties in Islamic regions

  This seminar on waqf enters into its 3rd year. After having studied daily use of waqf, followed by the subject of networks of individuals connected to waqf in Islamic lands and other religious communities in those regions, in 2012-13, we are studying the economy and waqf. This is important in the sens that economic networks related to waqf reflect and reveal both the vertical and horizonatal depth of the contacts which are established with respect to waqf operations (rent of waqf properties, transfer of those properties, state politics in this respect) and the society in which they function. The documents studied in this seminar (judicial, legislative, literary) coming from Muslim majority regions but also from Europe where waqf is developing (United Kingdom, Austria, USA) will compose the program this year.
