Lives in Solidarity is an intimate and compelling description of BDS activism among Muslims living in two different cultural contexts, England and Bosnia. Unlike public discussions of BDS activism that tend to lack nuance, it explores both why Muslims engage in BDS activism and how they weave it into their daily lives. Not only is this a thoughtful ethnography of a critical but often ignored dimension of BDS activism, it is also an important corrective to scholarship that treats affective, ethical, and passionate attachments as inconsequential to politics.
Jana Jevtić, Ph.D. (2015), Central European University, is an anthropologist of religion specialized in Islamic piety and activism. She was a Visiting Scholar at University of California, Berkeley, and currently works in management consulting.
