Journal of Levantine Studies (JLS) is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the critical study of the social, political, and cultural settings that in various periods of history have been known as the Levant. As a platform for theoretical and empirical scholarship, JLS aims to reclaim the notion of the Levant as a historical and political concept and as a category of identity and classification.

 

JLS publishes articles that are focused on the modern and contemporary eras and that engage academic discussion on relevant topics, including but not limited to:

Migrations of knowledge and people

Diaspora communities and networks

Culture, identity, and consumerism

Religious, social, and political thought

Political parties and religious movements
