In Beyond Eurocentric Social Theory: The Nomadic Intellectual on Religion, Culture and the State , the contributors illustrate different dimensions of Seyed Javad Miri’s oeuvre and demonstrate how his scholarship bridge the Eastern and Western intellectual traditions and foster a dialogue at the global level between Iranian intellectual history, Islamic philosophy and Western social theory.

Byrd, Ramze Endut, Meisam Ghavehchian, Carimo Mohomed, Michael Naughton, Aditya Nigam, Hossein Roohani, Mehdi Shariati, and Esmaeil Zeiny
