From Africa to Asia,
Twelver Shi‘a form significant minority and, in some cases, majority
communities. Geography and history place Iran at the centre of these
worlds. But to what extent can we speak of an ‘Iranian model’ that these
groups follow?
This meticulously researched volume presents the
Shi‘a worlds in all their complexities, exploring the tenuous relations
between these groups and Iran while shedding light on the understudied
Shi‘a communities in the Gulf, Turkey, Afghanistan and Senegal.
