Balkan Periodicals Academy: Islam, State and Society in Balkans, 1918-1945

Our Balkan Periodicals Project aims to examine contemporary (Bosniak, Turkish, and Albanian) thought in the Balkans (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia, Serbia, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Greece, Bulgaria, and Romania) through periodicals (magazines and newspapers) (weekly). This legacy will be studying in three different periods: 1918–1945, 1946–1990, and 1990–2018, and the periodicals in which Islamic thought was expressed, produced, and discussed in these periods will be analyzed in detail.  

The project consists of four stages. First of all, it is to reveal the inventory of all periodicals in which thought has found a channel within 100 years, to digitize all periodicals in this inventory as much as possible, to protect the heritage of thought and culture, to prepare the ground for current researchers and future generations to conduct research under the most favorable conditions, and finally to record the formation, development, and breakage stages of these channels by conducting oral history studies with the owners, chief writers, managers, and writers of periodicals.

Balkan Periodicals Academy aims to share and interact with the data obtained within the context of the project, the structure, themes and discussions of Islamic thought with relevant or potential individuals, groups and institutions. Consisting of 8 seminars and five sessions, the academy not only creates a framework for Islam, thought, society and periodicals in the Balkans, but also provides a basis for the literary life and thought practices of Muslim societies that turned into nation states and minorities.
