TY - JOUR TI - The Crisis of the Academic Humanities in the Arab World AU - Dallal, Ahmad T2 - Comparative Studies of South Asia, Africa and the Middle East AB - [From second paragraph]: And although less documented, there is sufficient evidence to suggest that the crisis of the humanities in the Arab and Muslim worlds (and the global south more generally) is even more critical. Yet it is noteworthy that the type of questioning engendered by the decline of support for academic humanities in the West has no parallel in the Arab world. This might be because the causes for decline in academic humanities in the West are not identical to the causes for decline in Arab countries, where the study of the humanities has a different historical trajectory.
