  Religious dynamics in contemporary Egypt

  Ce colloque international se propose de réunir au Caire les spécialistes de la religion et du religieux en Égypte contemporaine autour de problématiques transversales. Des chercheurs de différentes disciplines échangeront leurs expériences de terrain de manière à encourager des approches renouvelées de la religion vécue par les Égyptiens. La coexistence, les conflits et les circulations seront appréhendés de manière à montrer comment les questions religieuses se mèlent aux aspects politiques, sociaux ou culturels de la vie des Égyptiens.
