"The colloquium organised by the research Center PRISME (CNRS / Robert Schuman University of Strasbourg) will bring together some twenty specialists of Shiisme, Muslims in Europe, and religious minorities. It will be one of the first attempts to realise an in-depth analysis of the Shiite presence on European ground: re-structuring, re-composition of believing and acting, relations to ethnicity, nation, and modes of declinations of belonging to the Umma. La coopération entre différentes minorités ethniques et courants religieux, les interactions qui s'établissent entre l'appartenance religieuse et la politique dans les pays d'origine devront également être mis en lien avec la situation d'autres composantes musulmanes d'Europe" (http://colloque-shiisme.mineurel.info/index_EN.html, accessed 23 July 2008).
