Abstract
The main purpose of this Article is, thus, to set out a preliminary case for such a rapport, one that brings together interdisciplinary scholarship in international law and security studies, and demonstrates in the specific case of Islamic and International Humanitarian Law (IHL) the potential to identify shared conceptual tools and common assessments of cross-cutting international security challenges.
In the following parts, I first outline key barriers in social science and comparative research on Islamic law and its implications. I then turn to the second prong in the argument, the symmetry between the challenges that both international and Islamic legal regimes face in the post-9/11 security climate. Lastly, I take up the insights possible when these regimes are brought together to critically reflect upon such challenges.
