12th International Academic Conference on Islamicjerusalem Studies, SOAS, University of London, 6 November 2010.
The theme for this year is "Orientalist Approaches to Islamicjerusalem". This one-day conference will be looking into the religious and political agendas of the Orientalist
approaches towards Islamicjerusalem and its Studies. It will bring into focus not only the importance of this topic in the study of classical Orientalists, but also, the way this has been taken forward by neo-orientalist and Israeli Academics.

- Theoretical Framework of Orientalist Approaches
- Relationship between Knowledge and Power
- The Developments and legacy of Islamicjerusalem terminology and studies
- The depiction of Islam and Muslims in Orientalist Art
- The Significance of Islamicjerusalem as understood by Orientalist and Israeli Academic (eg. Night Journey, Quranic & Hadith references, Umar’s visit …)

- Case Studies of Israeli Academics
