The modern nation state plays a powerful role in shaping how we define ourselves—but as global challenges shift ideas of culture, citizenship and belonging, its future is being reimagined.
Join Doha Debates for a town hall that brings together three influential thinkers to explore what national identity means today. Wael Hallaq, a scholar of Islamic law and a leading critic of modern state structures, examines identity beyond territorial boundaries. Indian parliamentarian and author Shashi Tharoor offers insight into nationalism and postcolonial identity. Historian David Engels brings a European perspective on tradition and cultural continuity.
Moderated by journalist Malika Bilal, this debate will unfold live on stage with students and recent graduates.
