Mohamed Mohamed

Mohamed’s work draws from the sociology of religion, political sociology, globalization theory and institutional change theory to examine how and under what circumstances might domestic religious actors influence global politics. In his dissertation, “Al-Azhar Re-Imagined: State Appropriation, Religious Capital, and Political Transnationalism, 1924-2024”, he examines the various ways in which Egypt’s official religious establishment, al-Azhar, has been interacting with transnational politics over the last century.
