Christian minorities of Egypt

Saison 4 · Épisode 1

mercredi 29 janvier 2025 • Durée 24:16

In the first episode of the 4th season of the CMR Podcast, Sara Allam Shaltout, a PhD candidate at the School of International Relations, delves into the complexities of church-state relations in Egypt and their influence on the everyday lives of Christian minorities, particularly Coptic Christians. Joined by Dr. Fouad Halboni, Lecturer of Political Anthropology at the American University in Cairo, the discussion traces the origins of these relations to the Millet system from the Ottoman Empire—a framework for managing religious affairs for non-Muslim subjects under Islamic rule. This episode sheds light on the continued relevance of this system in understanding contemporary church-state dynamics and their impact on Christian communities in Egypt.

lundi 1 juillet 2024 • Durée 54:27

In this episode, Michelle Alm Engvall, social researcher, MA in Anthropology and Humanitarian Action; Megan Denise Smith, Protection and Gender Specialist, Independent Consultant and PhD candidate in Political and Social Sciences at Universitat Pompeu Fabra; and Esther Neira, PhD candidate in Anthropology at Queen’s University Belfast, discuss the intersections between transactional sex (TS) and humanitarianism.

Based upon their experiences within their humanitarian sector and academia, they talk about the challenges that researching this topic implies, the gaps between the humanitarian industry and academia, and how to build better bridges between both.
