Research

Intensive cooperation in research groups is made possible by the integration of a variety of cultural studies, humanities, and social science disciplines at the CNMS; these research groups are an attractive feature for other faculties and facilities at the Philipps University.

Several interdisciplinary research projects have arisen from this constellation:

• Documentation and Research Center Iraq (DARCI)

• State Formation and State Decline in the Near and Middle East Past and Present

• Triumph of Subversion? The End of mass ideologies and new dynamics of opposition in the Middle East and North Africa

Details of the research projects in the various subject areas of the CNMS can be found on their respective websites:

• Egyptology

• Arabic Studies

• Iranian Studies

• Semitic Studies
