Over the last decades of the 20th century, Alevi identity, religion
and culture have gained an increasingly public character in both
Turkey and Western Europe. This book analyses the ongoing efforts
of negotiating common cultural denominators and shared repertoires
of texts, sources, practices, or musemes, which are to represent
Alevism across its ethnic, social, political, and regional
differences. Bringing together international contributions from a
wide range of disciplines, such as Islamic and Religious Studies,
Musicology, Anthropology, and Islamic Theology, this book focusses
on the processes of negotiating an Alevi 'Cultural Heritage'
between standardisation and plurality-processes in which Alevis and
non-Alevis, politics and scholarship partake.
