Muftah is a biannual digital magazine that probes key issues of the metamodern.

Founded in 2010 as a global affairs digest, Muftah fosters discussion on the interactions between modernity’s grand narratives and postmodernism’s critical insights in today’s shifting cultural and political landscape.

We publish essays and opinion pieces that engage emerging currents in contemporary thought, culture, and politics—drawing on Islamic, decolonial, leftist, communitarian, and other diverse frameworks.
