Dr. Fevzi Sarac is a political scientist whose work explores the intersections of civic engagement, political Islam, democratization, and the role of social movements in shaping political culture. His academic and intellectual journey has focused on how civic engagement, ethical education, and cultural values interact within both democratic and authoritarian contexts. He is particularly interested in how faith-based communities contribute to public life without relying on political power, and how religious identity is passed on in ways that emphasize dialogue, service, and shared moral responsibility. Drawing inspiration from questions at the heart of political philosophy, sociology, and theology, he approaches his work with a commitment to bridging theory and practice. His educational background includes a Ph.D. in Political Science from Louisiana State University, and he has taught a wide range of courses on global issues, Middle Eastern politics, political theory, social movements and research methods.
Beyond academia, Dr. Sarac has been actively involved in interfaith dialogue, community leadership, and educational initiatives in the U.S. and abroad. He also contributes to various platforms focused on pluralism, education, and global peacebuilding.
