The conference ‘Jihad and other uses of Islam in World War i.
Instrumentalization of religion by the Ottoman Empire, its allies and
its enemies’ took place in Leiden on 13–14 November, 2014. This
volume is based on the papers delivered at that conference. It appears
exactly a hundred years after the pamphlet published by the famous
Leiden professor Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje “Heilige Oorlog Made in
Germany” (Holy War Made in Germany), from which the conference
took its thematic cue.
