Special Issue: ‘Boundaries, Flows and the Making of Muslim Selves’
*Aims & Scope*
The *International Journal of Islamic Architecture *(IJIA) is intended for
those interested in urban design and planning, architecture, and landscape
design in the historic Islamic world, encompassing the Middle East and
parts of Africa and Asia, but also the more recent geographies of Islam in
its global dimensions. The main emphasis is on detailed analysis of the
practical, historical and theoretical aspects of architecture, with a focus
on both design and its reception. The journal is also specifically
interested in contemporary architecture and urban design in relation to
social and cultural history, geography, politics, aesthetics, technology,
and conservation. Spanning across cultures and disciplines, IJIA seeks to
analyze and explain issues related to the built environment throughout the
regions covered. The cross-cultural and interdisciplinary nature of this
journal will significantly contribute to the knowledge in this field.
