The Power of European Fatwas: The Minority Fiqh Project and the Making of an Islamic Counterpublic, Alexandre Caeiro's 2010 article in the International Journal of Middle East Studies, is a peer reviewed study of European Islamic minority-fiqh fatwa councils and the counterpublic they help constitute. Its strength is publication in a leading area studies journal, grounded in direct research on the councils themselves. Its limit is that it examines specifically European minority-fiqh institutions; broader claims about fatwa practice elsewhere in the Muslim world should draw on separate scholarship for those contexts.
