Biography: 

Armando Salvatore is a scholar of comparative religion. His primary focus is on inter-religious and trans-civilizational dynamics. Salvatore’s overall approach is interdisciplinary, but his methodologies rely largely on historical-comparative sociology, social theory, and the sociology of knowledge. His most recent single-authored book is The Sociology of Islam: Knowledge, Power and Civility (Wiley Blackwell, 2016). Among his other recent publications are the chief editorships of the multi-authored works The Wiley Blackwell History of Islam (Wiley Blackwell, 2018) and The Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of the Middle East (Oxford University Press, in press).
