About Qaseem Ahmadzai
Dear New Books team,
My name is Qaseem Ahmadzai, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in intellectual history. I am currently pursuing my master’s degree in intellectual history at Södertörn University in Sweden.
I would love the opportunity to join your team as a podcast host. My main research interests lie in postcolonial and decolonial intellectual history, with a particular focus on Islamic thought, South Asia, and the Scandinavian context. I believe these perspectives could bring new voices and themes to your conversations.
I would be very happy to discuss this further and learn more about how new hosts contribute to your podcast.
Best regards,
Qaseem Ahmadzai
