The Many Roads in Modernity

The research centre, The Many Roads in Modernity, is organized into two intersecting tracks: “Contemporary Muslim Piety” and “The Transformation of South-East Europe and its Ottoman Heritage”.

Several of the projects connected to the centre are related to both themes. Most of the conferences, workshops and guest lectures at the centre connect to interests investigated by both tracks.
