Description
Guest speaker: Dr. Gerdien Jonker. The seminar adds to the recent discussion on the cultural imprint of Muslims on interwar Europe. Berlin, especially, offered a stage on which it proved perfectly possible for Indians and Germans, Muslims and Jews, Arabs and Europeans, to meet and think about cultural traditions together. In this cultural focal point, Ahmadiyya played the role of metropolitans from the periphery, offering a peace message that disturbed the status quo.
