Loin du Jihad. Les combattants de culture musulmane dans les armées européennes
Far from Jihad. Muslim soldiers in European armies
Veröffentlicht am mercredi, 21. mai 2014
Zusammenfassung
Hundreds of thousands of Muslim combatants – the vast majority of them being non-Europeans – fought in the ranks of various European armies in the 20th century. How Islam was perceived by the military authorities supervising these combatants? What role did Islam played for the troops themselves? This conference aims at reintroducing the question of religious belonging and practice into the study of Muslim combatants in European armies by focusing on the combatants’ viewpoint as much as possible, alongside the viewpoint of the administrations and military hierarchy.
