The Turkish Association was established in 2004, however, many of the members fondly remember Prof. Annemarie Schimmel’s efforts during the 1950’s to help place the history of religions on more firmer ground in Turkey. The new association consists of 86 members from 22 different universities in Turkey. It became affiliated to the IAHR in Tokyo, 2005
