An internationally recognized scholar of Islam, Tariq Ramadan was named by TIME magazine as one of the 21st century's top 100 innovators for his infl uential eff orts toward the establishment of a modern and independent European Islam.

Prof. Ramadan's lecture will draw from his most recent book, A Radical Reform: Islamic Ethics and Liberation, in which he calls for a dramatic transformation of Muslim spiritual, ethical, legal and social traditions as a necessary response to contemporary global challenges.

"[Ramadan's proposal] is bound to provoke controversy and spark debate among Muslims and non-Muslims alike." - Oxford University Press
