Harvard Still Avoids Islamism as a Subject of Study, Critic Says

Original: Islamism, the Subject We Still Avoid at Harvard

A Harvard Crimson opinion piece argues that Islamism — political Islam as an ideological movement — remains a topic Harvard scholars and students largely avoid, despite its relevance to terrorism, Middle East politics and current debates on campus. The author contends fear of controversy and accusations of bias have made serious study of the subject taboo at the university.

Why now: Ongoing campus debates over the Israel-Hamas war and free speech have reignited arguments about whether universities can discuss Islamism objectively.
