Emily Greble specializes in the history of modern Eastern Europe and the Balkans, particularly the former Yugoslavia. Her scholarship delves into the complexities of Islam in Europe, the dynamics of civil war, and societal transformations within the post-Ottoman landscape. She critically examines the intricate interplay between faith and citizenship, the integration of Islamic law into European state frameworks, and the evolving meaning of the 'Muslim world' for those residing in the Balkans. Greble's work uncovers hidden narratives of conflict and social change, offering profound insights into the region's formative experiences.
Drawing upon Muslim Europe's own voices, institutions, and experiences, this compelling work reframes the debates on European secularism, the historic role of Shari'a law in diverse European states, Muslims and Nazis, Muslims and Communists, and the contributions of Muslims to Europe today.
