Gapura: Journal of Islamic Cosmopolitanism is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal published by Aliansi Transintegrasi Lektur Agama dan Sains (ATLAS), Indonesia, twice a year, in June and December. Gapura focuses on the study of Islamic cosmopolitanism through both theoretical inquiry and empirical research. Drawing on the concept of Islamic cosmopolitanism as a style of thought, a worldview, and a lived practice rooted in the Islamic principle of shared humanity and moral responsibility, the journal aims to explore how Muslims engage with universal values while remaining grounded in their religious and cultural traditions. In this regard, the journal encourages scholarly works that highlight openness, inclusivity, ethical responsibility, and the capacity of Islam to foster coexistence and mutual enrichment across diverse societies. Gapura aims to advance scholarship on Islamic cosmopolitanism by exploring its manifestations in everyday life, intellectual traditions, social movements, and institutions, while promoting studies through emphasizing cooperation, pluralism, and peaceful coexistence, and examining the dynamic interplay between Islamic and social identities in shaping inclusive and globally engaged Muslim subjectivities. The journal’s scope spans multiple disciplines within Islamic studies and the social sciences, including but not limited to Qur’anic studies (tafsīr), ḥadīth studies, Islamic law, Islamic philosophy, theology, Sufism, and intellectual history, as well as sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, political science, economics, gender studies, and media studies. Particular attention is given to themes such as everyday cosmopolitanism (e.g., marketplaces, mosques, and digital spaces), Muslim intellectuals and activists, gender and cosmopolitan identities, state policies and politics, transnational Islamic movements, and the role of educational institutions in shaping cosmopolitan outlooks. All these disciplines are welcomed as long as they engage with and contribute to the development of Islamic cosmopolitanism as their central analytical framework.
