"Deorientalizing Citizenship? Experiments in Political Subjectivity",
The symposium is organised by the Oecumene: Citizenship after orientalism research
project. The possibility of conceiving practices of citizenship after orientalism
points to experiments that uncover, rearticulate and provoke subjugated forms of
politics. Through addressing the intersections between orientalism, colonialism and
citizenship (panel 1), exploring possibilities of democratic politics for
decolonizing citizenship (panel 2) and troubling universal claims to rights (panel
3), we ask what images of citizenship are emerging in relation to the process of
deorientalization? It is this experimentation itself, rather than its outcomes, that
constitutes 'citizenship after orientalism' as a field of investigation.

Law
This one day workshop highlights the foundations of the legal philosophy of Sharia
Law. The areas which will be covered include:
- Introduction including an account of the advent of the jurisprudence in the Muslim
world.
- The text and its interpretation; this will delve into -among other things- the
denominational variations of the text as well as mythologies of legal construction.
- The rationalisation, analogical extrapolation and application of rules.
- The role of legal precedence.
- Customary features of law.
- Interaction and coexistence with international legal instruments.
This workshop is intended for those who wish to gain an elaborate and yet succinct
view of how law is made in Islam. The workshop encourages all to register
particularly the legal scholars and practitioners and students.
