Double-weighted statement
The book is an original 262-page manuscript based on primary data collected during more than three years of doctoral research, including 15 months’ fieldwork in 2003-4, 2006, and 2007, chiefly in Lebanon, but also in Syria and Iran. The three core chapters on Islamic legal opinion and its uses, as well as one presenting a theoretical discussion of new kinship in the light of that ethnographic material, could each have been stand-alone articles for specialist journals.
