Plural Cultures - Plural Spaces
Taking the Institut des Cultures d’Islam
[http://www.institut-cultures-islam.org/] as the object of its study,
this one-day conference will explore Franco-British comparative
perspectives on the Institute as part of a wider reflection on
contemporary cultural spaces and their role in both modern retellings
of national history and the stimulation of cultural variety to create
new forms of openness of the mind and of space.
