【Profile】

Fadi A. Bardawil is Associate Professor of Contemporary Arab Cultures in the department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at Duke University.
He analyzes the archive of critical Arabic thought, which has been produced in multiple languages (predominantly Arabic, French, English), in different geographical sites, and in conversation with multiple intellectual traditions his research moves beyond methodological nationalism and monolingualism.
His book Revolution and Disenchantment: Arab Marxism and the Binds of Emancipation focuses on how the 1960s Arab New Left addressed the question of mediation between theory and practice.
