Dr. Chouki
Hamel received his doctorate from the University of Paris-Sorbonne in January
1993. His training in France at the
Centre de Recherches Africaines
was in pre-colonial African History.
His research interests focused on the spread and the growth of Islamic
culture and the evolution of Islamic institutions in Africa and investigating
the subaltern relationship to ruling institutions, power, race
and gender politics. His research is
evidenced in his published articles and a book concerning intellectual life
in pre-colonial Islamic West Africa.
He taught courses in African History at North Carolina State
University in Raleigh and at Duke University from 1994 to 2001. In 2001-2002 he was a scholar in residence
at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York City and in
2002 he joined the History Department at Arizona State University. He has just finished a book entitled Black Morocco: a History of Race, Gender
and Slavery. The Internal African
Diaspora and Slavery in the Islamic Discourse (forthcoming). Browse this homepage for more information. |
