CIS Public Talks - Maghrebi Judeo-Muslim relations in urban France (Paris and Marseille)

Dr Everett develops the notion of Maghrebinicité that brings together historical-racial – Maghreb – and spatial-political – Cité – dimensions of Parisian Jewish identification to North Africa. His work involved multi-sited ethnographic and historical research in Paris, North Africa and Jerusalem to analyse migratory trajectories and their interpretation intergenerationally.

He is a researcher at CRASSH (University of Cambridge) as Research Associate for the Religious Diversity and the Secular University project. His interdisciplinary research juxtaposes the role of encounter and exchange in religiously diverse urban everyday settings and in contemporary intellectual production. He writes against a discursive backdrop of increasing concern over identity and pluralism.

Talks are free to attend – refreshments at 5pm and the talk starts at 5.15.
