SS: One of the things that makes The Islamic Tradition and the Human Rights Discourse such a striking book is the breadth of its scope - you seem to cut across the expected categories of "majority communities," "minority communities" and so on. That's usual for a volume like this. Can you explain how the book came about?
HAH: I have to express my gratitude to the Carnegie Corporation in New York - they were forward thinking and, unlike many funders of D.C. think-tanks, very open to support the examination of a theme that is of great interest to me and the interlocutors with whom I engaged.
