This project, funded by the Open Society Foundation Fellowship Programme, focused upon mutations among Saudi Islamists after the 2011 Arab Uprisings. It examined the new reinterpretations of Islamic texts prevalent among a small minority of Saudi reformers and their activism in the pursuit of democratic governance and civil society. The result of this research project, sponsored by the Open Society Foundation Fellowship Programme, appeared in a monograph entitled Muted Modernists: The Struggle Over Divine Politics in Saudi Arabia (Hurst & OUP, 2015).
