Bassam Tibi (Arabic: بسام طيبي), is a Syrian-born German political scientist and professor of international relations specializing in Islamic studies and Middle Eastern studies. He was born in 1944 in Damascus, Syria to an aristocratic family,[1] and moved to West Germany in 1962, where he later became a naturalized citizen in 1976.
He is known for his analysis of international relations[vague] and the introduction of Islam to the study of international conflict and of civilization. Tibi is known for introducing the controversial concept of European Leitkultur, as well as the concept of Euroislam to discussions about integration of Muslim immigrants in European countries.[2] Tibi has done research in Asian and African countries. He publishes in English, German, and Arabic.
