An analysis of the western Baha'i studies from a globalization perspective, by

Studies about the Baha’i Faith in the fields of phenomenology, sociology, theology, and historiography among the Western scholars are as old as about one hundred and fifty years! In her book, The Citizens of the World, Warburg seeks to reflect these studies and to introduce and examine the Bahai Faith based on the results of the researches. Identifying Western sources and references in the field of Baha'i studies and the challenges they face, both the Baha'i academic scholars and other independent scholars, is an issue that is addressed in this paper from Ms. Warburg's viewpoint.
