OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

In this talk, Dominik Müller will present the conceptual framework of a newly established collaborative research project studying “The Bureaucratisation of Islam and its Socio-Legal Dimensions in Southeast Asia”. It investigates contemporary dynamics of Islamic bureaucratisation with an analytic focus on the state’s exercise of classificatory power and its workings on the micro-level. The project views the bureaucratisation of Islam in Southeast Asia not just as an empirical fact to be examined in singular national contexts, but aims at theorising its underlying patterns from a comparative perspective.
